Shut off the Water!

If a water pipe breaks in your home, do you know where your shut-off valve is located? Find it so you are prepared to turn the water off in a hurry during an emergency. Water damage can happen very quickly and time is of the essence if a pipe breaks.

• In the garage, near the water heater or laundry hookup
• In the crawl space or basement, where the waterline enters the home
• Outside near the foundation, often protected by a concrete ring or clay pipe
