LEAK ADJUSTMENT REQUEST

Look for drips. Check showers and faucets for leaks. Look at each fixture and look under sinks in cabinets for drips too. 

Check toilet for leaks. Listen for leaks. Just because you don’t hear the toilet tank making noise doesn’t mean it’s not leaking.  

• Remove the tank lid.
• Drop one dye tablet into tank . You can also use 10 drops of food coloring.
• Put the lid back on.
• Wait for at least 30 minutes then look in the bowl.  If you see colored water, you have a leak.

Other Leak Possibilities:

Dishwasher, humidifiers, ice maker, laundry room, outdoor water fixtures, refrigerator, water heaters

Check sprinklers. Turn each sprinkler zone on and look for low pressure, water bubbling out of the ground or broken sprinkler heads.  Look for brown spots where sprinklers are not covering like they should. This can be a sign of a leak. 

Contact us! We will come to your home and check your water meter to see if it is registering usage while all your water fixtures in the home/business are off. This test will determine whether or not you have a constant leak.
