The LaGrange Fire Department will be flushing fire hydrants throughout the city through Feb. 13.

LFD officers plan to flush hydrants at 72 locations in the city of LaGrange. The flushing is required to maintain a favorable Insurance Services Office rating. The city currently has a favorable ISO rating of “2.”

The rating is based on factors like gallons per minute and pressure.

With a good insurance rating, residents and business in the city receive lower insurance rates.

LFD is expected to be completed with the hydrant flushing by mid February.
