WATER LINES AT RISK FOR FREEZING
Due to the prolonged frigid temperatures and deepening frost levels, customer lateral water lines are at risk of freezing. According to Grantsburg Public Works Director Chris Bartlett “Our water system is moving water continually and does not show signs of dropping into a risky temperature range. However, there are times in any 24 hour period where there is not a continual movement of water through a private lateral line to a building, putting those lines at risk of freezing.”
Customers are encouraged to periodically check the temperature of the water coming into their properties at the closest point of entry to their building through the remainder of the winter season. If the water temperature is close to 38 degrees or lower, customers are encouraged to begin running a continual stream of water through their pipes. Anyone who would like to have the Village Crew come check their water temperature for them can call 715-463-2405. Additionally, if you do decide to begin running water, please let the Village office know by calling with your name and address.
All residences and businesses in Grantsburg with a history of freezing water laterals have been contacted. For those buildings, running a continual stream of water through their pipes has already been suggested by the Village. “The movement of water through the water service will prevent water lines from freezing.” concludes Bartlett. Anyone with questions or concerns is encouraged to contact the Village of Grantsburg during regular business hours at 715-463-2405.

HELP US KEEP THE FIRE HYDRANTS
FREE OF SNOW
The Grantsburg Fire Department works hard to prevent fires but, when they do occur, there is an important resource in your neighborhood that your firefighters rely on: fire hydrants. We are encouraging residents to take ownership of a fire hydrant within your neighborhood and to keep it free of snow in the winter. Residents can also report any damage or leaks to the Public Works Department at 715-463-5670.
It is the residents' efforts that help the Grantsburg Fire Department in the event of a fire and prevent delays when firefighters need to secure this invaluable water source to put out a fire. Please adopt the hydrant near your home and encourage your neighbors to do the same. Thank you!
