Stop water-wasting leaks at home

The average household’s leaks can account for nearly 10,000 gallons of water wasted every year, and 10% percent of homes have leaks that waste 90 gallons of water per day. Do you live in a leaky home? Worn toilet flappers, dripping faucets and faulty irrigation are common types of leaks that once fixed can save water and money.

The City of Roseville’s Water Efficiency experts offer programs, workshops and one-on-one help to make sure residents are using water as wisely as possible. Free water-wise house calls, Cash for Grass rebates and watering tips are just a few of the services they provide. Check out some of the information below or call (916) 774-5761.

Do you have a leak?

Take a look at your past bill in the months of January or February. Did you use over 12,000 gallons? Beware: serious leaks!

Turn off any water being used in your house or in your landscape. Take a look at your water meter near the street and see if your low flow indicator is spinning. If so, you have a leak. Check out this video to see what a low flow indicator looks like.

Where are you leaking?

Do you see leaks anywhere? Do you feel or see water slowly seeping or leaking where it shouldn't? Is your toilet running all the time? Does it run when you aren't using it?
Is there constantly a wet or muddy spot in your yard?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, it's time to investigate because you have a leak!
