A quick meter check can help you determine whether water may be moving when it should not be.
Start by turning off all water inside and outside. Make sure appliances, irrigation, and pool auto-fill systems are not running. Then check the water meter. If it continues moving, water may be going somewhere it should not.
This does not tell you where the issue is, but it can help you know when it is time to investigate further. American Leak Detection can help locate the source and explain what we find.
Watch for a higher-than-normal water bill, damp spots, musty odors, warm areas on the floor, low water pressure, the sound of running water when everything is off, or wet areas around irrigation, pools, or foundations.
American Leak Detection helps identify the source so you can protect your property and move forward with confidence.
