Main water Valve Location
  Everyone in the household should know where to shut off the water to the house in case of a water leak. Knowing where the main valve is located can save a lot of money in water damage. Our inspectors will show the buyer where the main valve is located. Another good idea is to put a tag on the valve that the valve is the main valve and turning the valve shuts off all the water to the house. In an emergency people are afraid to turn valves unless they know exactly what the valve controls and for that reason write on the valve tag exactly what the valve controls .Needless to say the main valve should be easy to turn in an emergency there no time to go looking for a pliers to turn off the valve. Another good tip about the main valve is that it’s advantages to have it located in an easy access area. For example if the valve is located in back of a dark crawl space, women and children are not going to crawl in the crawl space to look for the valve. I know one lady after she hard a very expensive water damage incident when a large leak developed and no one could find the main valve that was located in the back of the crawl space. Well after the plumbing repairs were made she had the main valve piped up to the main floor and installed in a closet. She then had everyone in the household instructed where the valve was located and how to turn it off in case of water emergency.
