Magnolia at Westside and Solara Resort area flushing

Toho Water (Toho) will be conducting closed-circuit flushing activities in the Magnolia at Westside and Solara Resort areas starting Monday, October 26 (see map below). This is to enhance water appearance, odor, taste and quality. The activities will start in Magnolia at Westside and progress south to Solara Resort. 

The flushing activities will take place Monday- Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The activities are expected to be completed in three weeks. Schedules could vary due to weather and unforeseen circumstances. 

Closed-circuit flushing involves pumping water though a mobile filter system between fire hydrants. This type of flushing eliminates the need to discharge water from the hydrants maintaining water pressures in the area. 

Please see more information below.

What to expect

Customers may experience water discoloration, odor and sediment during the activities. Should this occur, running a cold and a hot water tap for 15 to 20 minutes should clear out the water lines within the home. If the problem persists, please contact our Customer Service at 407-944-5000. To avoid possible staining of clothes during washing, it is advised to wash clothes in the evening or on weekends. 

Area residents may see piping connected to fire hydrants and across driveways. The piping will be shielded to allow vehicular access. The activities may also involve lane closures or diverted traffic. 

Can I consume the water?

Yes, the water meets all state and federal regulations.
