ECUA Smoke Testing This Week In 10 Mile Road Area

September 3, 2019

ECUA crews will be smoke testing the sewer system this week in an area north and south of West 10 Mile Road just west of Highway 29.

Testing will be conducted from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in the following areas on Sept. 3, 4, and 5:

  • Horsemens Path
  • Eagle Terr.
  • Eagle St.
  • Southern Oaks Dr.
  • Deer Ridge Rd.
  • 1200 block of W. Ten Mile Rd.
  • 10300 & 10200 blocks of Cove Ave.
  • Calderwood Ct.
  • Evening Falls Dr.

White smoke will be circulated into the sewer lines and manholes to locate broken pipes and other defects, and will exit from vent pipes on home roofs. The smoke is non-toxic, leaves no residue, and creates no fire hazard. The smoke will not enter the house unless there is defective plumbing present or the drain traps are dry. If potential problems are found on private property, residents will be notified of repairs that may need to be made.

Smoke testing is expected to take three days, although the schedule may be modified as weather dictates.  For more information, customers may call ECUA Customer Service at (850) 476-0480.
