Responsible water users investigate household leaks frequently. Did you know, you can use your water meter to check for leaks? Here’s how:

• Step 1: Turn off all water appliances in your home; including faucets and plumbing fixtures. • Step 2: Locate your water meter and lift the meter face cap. Identify the Low Flow Indicator (LFI); a small red dial located on the meter’s face. • Step 3: Monitor the LFI for 12 minutes. If it moves, even slightly, you still have a leak. Repeat steps #1 and #3 after each repair until the LFI no longer moves.
