(KAIR)--The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has issued a boil water advisory for the Leavenworth County community of Linwood.

The advisory was issued Friday due to a loss of pressure because of a waterline break.

KDHE says failure to maintain adequate pressure may result in a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination.

Customers are advised to boil the water they use for drinking or food preparation for one minute prior to use or to use bottled water.

The boil advisory will remain in effect until further notice.
