Water damage is a homeowner's nightmare, but you can prevent disaster by knowing your shut-off valves. 💧
1. Locate: Check your crawlspace or near the water meter.
2. Test: Turn clockwise annually. If stuck, don’t force it—call a pro. 🛠️
3. Sub-valves: Know where to turn off water under sinks and toilets.
In an emergency:
✅ Close the main valve.
✅ Turn off your water heater power.
✅ Open outdoor hose bibs to drain lines.
