All potable water systems should be flushed after repairs and also if left sitting for extenden periods. I'm not sure if this is in the code but its just common sense. opening a hose bib or a tub valve when the water is restored after a repir is a best practise in the Plumbing trade. If you do not do this, debris can get loose and stop up the fixtures in the home, such as toilets and faucet areators, which will result in a call back; i.e. the plumber comes back at no charge. Yes he should flush the line to protect the fixtures. The chlorine that most cities and rural water companies use will disinfect the line. Some cities require a plumber to disinfect a line but trust me be careful what you ask for because it will be at the home owners expense.
