If you spot Seattle firefighters working near a hydrant, they’re likely doing important routine inspections. Each year, more than 19,000 hydrants across Seattle are inspected to ensure they’re working properly in case of emergencies. During this process, it’s common for water in nearby homes to appear temporarily discolored. This is caused by sediment being stirred up and should clear on its own in a couple of hours. If your water doesn’t clear, call the Seattle Public Utilities 24/7 Operations
