Did you know?
Want to check to see if your toilet tank is leaking? Pour some food coloring into the tank and check the bowl in a few hours later. If the water in the bowl is discolored, the flapper is not sealing as it should.
In the Winter
In extremely cold weather, let a faucet slowly drip to prevent freezing.In the Fall
Disconnect hoses from outside spigots to avoid freezing pipes under the house.
In the Summer
After using hoses, be sure to turn the water off at the spigot—not just on the nozzle of the hose. This will save you water and money.
In the Spring
Turn spigots completely on and off to test outdoor water lines after a cold winter.
Annually
Inspect the water-heater for any signs of rust.
Going out of town?
Turn off all water at your service-valve, this will take the worry out of any leaks or flooding while you are enjoying your well-deserved vacation. Don’t have a service valve? We can install one for you!
