Angier warns some residents about pressure changes as Junny Road tank comes online
Summary
At the Jan. 6 meeting the mayor said notices were being sent to residents about installing pressure‑reducing valves (PRVs) before the Junny Road water tank goes online; staff provided maps showing which properties may be affected.
Mayor Bob Jusnes told the board Jan. 6 that residents have begun receiving notices advising that installing pressure‑reducing valves (PRVs) may be necessary when the new Junny Road water tank goes into service. He said staff have provided maps and notices to identify which residents will be affected; not all customers will experience the pressure increase.
Why it matters: When a new elevated water tank is placed in service it can increase system pressure for downstream customers; affected residents may need PRVs installed on private plumbing to prevent overpressure damage. The minutes do not provide a schedule for when the tank will come online or list the specific addresses affected; residents with concerns were directed to town staff.
