HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- A precautionary boil water advisory was put in place Friday by West Virginia American Water for customers in the Salt Rock District.

This includes portions of Salt Rock, Barboursville, Huntington, Milton, Branchland and West Hamlin.

This comes after a water main break that drained a tank serving that area. West Virginia American Water crews are working to fix the problem as quickly as possible.

Affected customers should boil was for at least one minute before drinking, cooking, bathing or brushing teeth.

West Virginia American Water also recommends the following steps:
*Throw away beverages and ice cubes if made with tap water
*Keep boiled water in the refrigerator for drinking
*Provide pets with boiled water after cooling
*Do not use home filtering devices in place of boiling or using bottled water
*Use only boiled water to treat minor injuries.
