What the water switch means for your heater

The Town of Randolph says it is now 100% on the new Tri-Town Water Treatment Plant, which serves Braintree, Randolph and Holbrook and was designed to remove PFAS. When blending started in July 2026, the water board warned of temporary changes in pressure, taste, odor and color.

A change in water supply can stir up sediment that has sat in pipes and tanks. If your hot water turned cloudy or gritty around the switch, flushing the tank may clear it. If it's still off, have the heater checked.

Electric

Electric water heaters

About 19% of Randolph homes heat with electricity. Electric water heaters usually fail at a heating element, a thermostat or the high-limit reset. If hot water runs out fast, the lower element is a common cause.

Renters

If you rent

About 29% of Randolph households rent. If that's you, the landlord is usually responsible for the water heater. Tell them right away, and if it's leaking, shut off the cold water valve on top of the tank.
