Water running during freezing temperatures

Water Running – Freezing Temperatures

The Town of Jerome is thankful that so many residents and businesses know to run their water during freezing temperatures and have been doing so.  It can save from catastrophic repairs to your infrastructure and the Town’s.  However, the water flow is currently overwhelming our wastewater treatment plant, so please keep the following in mind:  Only run water continuously during periods of freezing temperatures (32 degrees and below); and it only takes the slightest trickle to ensure no frozen pipes. 

Thank you!
