Question

Is washing your clothes ok when a boil water is in effect?

Answer 1

Yes, It's fine for you clothes.  Just don't drink the water or cook with it unless you boil it first.

Answer 2

Washing clothes is fine. The boil advisory is for consumption purposes only. 2D

Answer 3

Why not? you're not going to drink the same water you wash your clothes in.

Answer 4

Yes. Boil water alerts means you need to boil what you are going to drink or cook with. Washing clothes or bathing is fine. I'd also use the boiled water for brushing your teeth.
