An automatic flushing system for a potable water station includes a conduit having a first end connected to a potable water supply source and a second end having a nozzle coupling. It also includes an air gap assembly having a coupling operable for coupling with the nozzle coupling to releasably connect the conduit to the air gap assembly in a stored position. Further, the system includes a control system operable for automatically flushing potable water through the conduit and the air gap assembly after exceeding a predetermined time in which a predetermined minimum threshold temperature is exceeded and a predetermined time during which the potable water station has remained idle. A method for automatically flushing a potable water station includes the step of providing the potable water station with a conduit having a first end connected to a potable water supply source and having a second end remote therefrom. It also includes the steps of coupling the second end of the conduit to an air gap assembly in a stored position of the potable water station, and automatically flushing potable water through the conduit and the air gap assembly of the potable water station. The method performs the step of automatically flushing after: a) a predetermined minimum threshold temperature has been exceeded for a predetermined time, and b) the potable water station has remained idle for a predetermined time.
