Stop Those Leaks!

Faucet Leaking
  1. Check your indoor water using appliances and devices for leaks.
  2. Many silent leaks allow water and your money to go down the drain. Studies have shown homes can waste more than 10% due leaking, which costs both you and the environment.
  3. Another large water waster can be leaks in your irrigation system. Fix irrigation system leaks quickly and check for water in the gutters or mud puddles. Inspect your sprinklers and drip sprayers regularly for leaks during the daytime since the optimal time to water is in the nighttime hours when you cannot observe leaks. If you have an older irrigation system, over 50% and even more than 75% of the water can be lost to leaks.
