Telephone Number: 1-206-412-5430 Conference ID: 255 700 309# Notice Is your garden hose making your household water funky? During the summer, the most common cause of water taste or odor complaints we receive is a pressurized garden hose that has backflowed into the home’s plumbing system. Here are some tips to help you with this issue: Disconnect the hose and run cold water from your faucet for a few minutes to flush the pipes. Need a sip of water on a hot day? Get it from your internal sources (sink or refrigerator) instead of a garden-variety garden hose which aren’t manufactured for delivering potable (drinking) water. If the taste or odor is still present after detaching the garden hose from external spigots and flushing your pipes, give us a call at 425-337-3647. Solar Power Coming to District Headquarters Department of Commerce grant funding successful In 2022, District staff applied for the Washington State Department of Commerce Solar Retrofit Grant and were successful in acquiring $75,000 in funding to put towards installing 100 kW of solar power at the District Headquarters. In total, the state grant awarded $1.4 million to 14 different projects, adding over 1 MW of power generation to public buildings. There have been significant changes to the project since the conception, including the possibility of receiving an additional rebate of the project cost via new Federal Government legislation. According to preliminary proposals, the estimated project cost will be $325,930, including $30,000 of contingency funding and $75,000 awarded by the Commerce Grant. The federal rebate may amount to an additional 40% reduction in the District’s costs. The District expects installation work to start in possibly March or April of this year, with construction taking less than a month. When complete, a 100 kW AC solar roof array will offset approximately 1/3 of our Headquarters building's electricity consumption. More information about the awardees and program can be found here.

The fill valve may be faulty. Correcting this problem can save up to 50 gallons of water a day, saving you money on your water bill. Here's how to do it Is your toilet cycling on and off? Does it make an occasional hissing noise? The rubber flapper at the bottom of the tank is not seating properly, causing water to slowly drain from the tank. Adjusting or replacing the flapper will usually fix this problem. Here's how to do it If you're not sure whether your toilet is leaking, it's easy to check for a leak. Click on this link to learn more: How to Detect a Toilet Leak If you need to test your toilet for a leak, we have free non-toxic dye tablet tests (complete with instructions) available for pick-up at our office. Fixing Leaky Faucets A dripping faucet can cause your water bill to be unusually high. While they're usually easily noticed inside the home, outside faucets often go unchecked—because they're not something you see regularly. The same is true of garden hose nozzles, even in the off position, they will often have a slow leak. It's always best to turn off garden hoses at the faucet, rather than relying on the nozzle. Whether it's an inside or outside faucet that's leaking, check out these tips on how to Repair a Faucet Leak to get it fixed. Keeping Irrigation Systems in Check Next to a leaky toilet, your home, business, or school’s irrigation system is often the #1 culprit in high water bills. It's important to inspect and tune up your system at least once a year, using the guidelines below. For a more in-depth explanation of all irrigation systems and their proper tune-up steps, visit this website: http://www.irrigationtutorials.com/faq/tune-up.htm Spray-Type Sprinklers: Remove the nozzle from each head and clean the screen with an old toothbrush. Turn on the sprinklers and look for partially blocked nozzles. If the fan-shaped spray of water is not even and uniform, a grain of sand is likely stuck in the nozzle. Use a plastic or wood tool (like a toothpick) rather than a metal knife blade, because nozzles are easy to scratch, and scratches can ruin the spray pattern. Even better, replace the nozzle. Using the adjustment screw on top of each nozzle, adjust the water direction. If the heads are creating a lot of mist, turn the screw clockwise. After adjusting, make sure the spray still goes all the way to the next sprinkler. Drip Irrigation Systems: Turn on the water and inspect each drip or spray nozzle to locate and replace or repair any that have become dislodged, clogged, or been damaged by rodents. Check your timer regularly and adjust according to the season. At the end of the season, drain the system and store timers in the garage or another area of your home that won't drop below freezing. Rotor-Type Sprinklers: Turn on each valve, one at a time, and carefully inspect your irrigation system. Look for wet spots that could indicate a leaking irrigation pipe. Repair any leaks. Replace the controller battery. Straighten any sprinkler heads that are leaning to the side (leaning heads create dry spots and waste water). Replace any broken or malfunctioning sprinklers with the same brand and model as the other sprinklers on the same valve circuit; note: most manufacturers use different flow rates in their sprinkler heads so it’s important to get the same brand and model. Winterization Checklist Shut Off Water Protect Your Pipes Disconnect and drain all garden hoses. Insulate exterior pipes and faucets with newspaper, rags, or insulating material, then cover with plastic and secure with string or wire. You can also use electric heat tape. Insulate interior pipes and faucets located in cold areas of your home (including unheated attics, basements, garages and crawl spaces) the same way as Step 2. Locate your home’s main water shut-off valve and test it prior to an emergency, so you can stop excessive water loss and flooding if a pipe breaks. If it's not easily turned by hand, use a wrench to turn it firmly—but gently—in a clockwise direction. Alternatively, you can turn off your water at the meter box by using a “Water Meter Valve Key” tool (shown below; costs roughly $15 at most hardware stores). Locating Your Main Water Shut-Off Valve: This valve is either round or shaped like a lever. It’s usually located in your basement, crawlspace, garage, or outdoor foundation, often near the front faucet. Turn or move it to the right to shut off the main water supply to your house. If you are having difficulties, just give us a call at (425) 337-3647. Additional Safety Measures If you have a yard sprinkler system, drain and blow out the system completely. On extra cold nights, open the doors of closets or cabinets that are located near water pipes on your home’s exterior walls. For maximum protection, apply caulk around incoming pipes, and close or block your home’s foundation vents during the coldest months (open them up once the threat of freezing has passed to prevent dry rot). If you have a second home or cabin that is left unoccupied for several days (or longer)... Turn off the main water shut-off valve. Turn off the electricity or gas to the water heater. If the house is going to be vacant for an extended length of time, the water heater should also be drained. Open and drain indoor and outdoor faucets. After the water is turned off, flush the toilet once to drain the tank but not the bowl. Leave the heat on at a minimum temperature to help keep pipes from freezing in the walls. Thaw Frozen Pipe How to Thaw a Frozen Pipe If you turn on a faucet and only a little trickle (or no water) comes out, your pipe is probably frozen. 1. Locate the suspected frozen area of the pipe—usually where pipes are up against exterior walls, or where your water service enters your home through the foundation. 2. Turn on the faucet closest to the suspected frozen area. This will allow water to flow through the pipe once the frozen area begins to melt, which will help more ice melt inside the pipe. 3. SLOWLY try to thaw the frozen section of pipe. Soak some old rags in hot water and wrap them around the pipe. When the wet rags cool, re-soak them in hot water and continue to apply until water begins to flow again. DO NOT... use an open flame such as a blowtorch, kerosene or propane heater, charcoal stove, candle, or cigarette lighter, as this can cause the water in the frozen pipe to boil and explode the pipe. Open flames also present a serious fire danger, as well as exposure to lethal carbon monoxide. What to Do if a Pipe Breaks IMMEDIATELY turn off the main water shut-off valve to minimize flooding and damage. If you’re unable to turn off your water, call us for help at (425) 337-3647. Our crews are very busy during freeze emergencies, so we may not be able to respond in time to prevent flooding damage...this is why it’s critical that you know the location of your main water shut-off valve (and how to turn it off). It’s also important to keep your water meter unobstructed for easy access. Remember, you are responsible for protecting and repairing the section of water pipes that run from the water meter, all the way into your home.

  • Cross Connection Control | Silver Lake Water & Sewer District | Bothell

    Silver Lake Water & Sewer District provides utility service to over 56,000 customers in the Bothell, Washington region since 1934. Contact Us Help Us Keep Your Water Safe with Cross Connection Control Keeping water safe is a two-way street. We rely on you, our customers, to be aware of any cross connection to the water system that you might have on your property, and to protect those connections with a Backflow Prevention Device to ensure the safety of our drinking water. What is a Cross Connection? A cross connection is a point in a plumbing system where it is possible for a non-potable substance to come into contact with the potable drinking water supply. For homeowners, these commonly include irrigation systems, private fire sprinkler systems, boiler systems, and pool or pond equipment. What is Backflow? Backflow occurs when water or other substances flow in the opposite direction than intended—such as the water in an irrigation system flowing back towards the water source once it's turned off—which allows contaminants to enter the public water system or consumer's plumbing. A backflow incident occurs when biological, chemical, or physical contaminants enter the drinking water supply (under backflow conditions) via unprotected cross-connections. Backflow incidents may cause injury, illness, or death. What is Required to Keep Water Safe? In our complex water system, everything is connected. Washington State Administrative Code (WAC 246-290-490 ) requires customers to install, maintain, and test Backflow Prevention assemblies (examples shown above) to keep pollutants and contaminants from entering the clean drinking water system and prevent backflow incidents. This same Code requires Silver Lake Water & Sewer District maintain a backflow prevention program, in which we send out annual reminder letters to customers with Backflow Prevention Devices when their device's annual test is due. What Are Your Responsibilities? If you have irrigation, fire sprinkler or other water-using systems, you will need to: Have a Backflow Prevention Device installed at the connection between your systems and the District's public water system; Have a state certified Backflow Assembly Test performed annually (see a link to a list of certified testers below); and The tester is required to send in your test report using our online portal: Tokay WebTest Portal .

  • PFAS Monitoring | Silver Lake Water & Sewer District | Bothell

    Silver Lake Water & Sewer District’s drinking water remains safe and protected from contaminants, including the group of manmade chemicals labeled per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS) substances. Contact Us Silver Lake Water & Sewer District’s drinking water remains safe and protected from contaminants, including the group of manmade chemicals labeled per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS) substances. The District sources its water from the City of Everett. Due to the protected nature of their watershed, which prohibits activities like firefighting training, manufacturing, and agriculture, there are no point sources of PFAS within our source water. What are Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)? PFAS are a group of chemicals that are used widely and are commonly found in things like firefighting foam agents, the manufacture of non-stick materials for cooking (such as Teflon), and fabric protectants. Learn More: Environmental Protection Agency Washington State Dep't. of Health Background and History of PFAS Monitoring In 2016, The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a health advisory for drinking water pertaining to two of the compounds found in the PFAS group: Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and Perflourooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS). Health advisory levels are non-enforceable guidelines that are intended to protect human health. The health advisory level is 0.07 parts per billion (ppb) for PFOA and PFOS combined. The Washington State Board of Health (WSBOH) recently revised the Group A drinking water rules to require water systems to monitor for select PFAS compounds beginning in 2023. WSBOH established state action levels (SALs) for five selected PFAS compounds as follows: Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) - 0.010 ppb Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) - 0.015 ppb Perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA) - 0.009 ppb Perfluorohexane sulfonic acid (PFHxS) - 0.065 ppb Perfluorobutane sulfonic acid (PFBS) - 0.345 ppb Exceeding a confirmed SAL requires a water system to provide public notification and follow-up monitoring. While exceeding a SAL does not require a water system to treat for the contaminant, the SALs are intended to advise water systems on when to take action to lower contaminant levels to provide for safe, long-term consumption of drinking water. Testing Your Drinking Water for PFAS In 2015, Silver Lake Water & Sewer District participated in monitoring for PFAS in its drinking water under the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule 3 (UCMR 3). No PFAS compounds were detected in the Districts drinking water as shown in Table 1 below: Table 1: In 2023 through May 2024, the District monitored our drinking water quarterly for an expanded list of PFAS compounds under the EPA’s current Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 5 ) . Once again, no PFAS compounds were detected in the District's drinking water as shown in Table 2 below: Table 2:
