A boil water order will be in effect once water service is restored. Illinois American Water will notify impacted customers by phone about the order. The boil water advisory is mandatory when water pressure drops below 20 pounds per square inch in the system. During this time, customers should bring water to a rolling boil for five minutes before using it for drinking or cooking. Water remains safe for bathing, washing, and other common uses.

After water tests confirm all regulatory standards are met, Illinois American Water will inform affected customers by phone that the boil water order has been lifted.
