How to Turn Off The Water

Before you leave town, or in an emergency, it is important to know how to turn-off the water to your home. Knowing how to turn off the water supply to your home can prevent severe flooding and damage that usually occurs with bursting pipes.

Having every member of your household understand this information is critical in saving your home in the event of a burst pipe.

To determine where your water shut off valve:

• Locate the outside water line that leads to your home. The water line usually flows directly from the water meter to a location inside the residence.
• The most likely places for the valve to be located are on the internal pipes near your outside walls or where the water enters the structure.This can be in the garage, utility room, mechanical room, or even on an exterior wall near the water meter side of the home.
