Finding a water leak in your home might seem difficult, but with a little instruction, you will be able to find most leaks and stop them before they cause expensive damage.Start searching for leaks by checking your water meter. The water meter has the information you need to determine whether or not there's a leak in your home. Write down the numbers you see and make sure all of the water is shut off in your home to sinks, hoses, water softeners and washing machines. Then go look at the numbers again. If your meter still reads that water is circulating through your home, shut your water valve off on your main water supply. From there, turn on sinks or other sources of water to determine if water is still circulating through them (even if the main valve for water is off) and then check your meter once again.At that point, you can determine if you need professionals such as Air Assurance to correct your problem. And remember, freezing weather can cause pipes to crack. and once they thaw, cause serious leak damage to your home. Be sure to ask your expert for more information about how to protect your pipes from freezing this winter.Our goal is to help educate our customers in the Tulsa and Broken Arrow, Oklahoma area about energy and home comfort issues (specific to HVAC systems).
