To test for a possible leak in your system, make sure all
faucets and water-using appliances, inside and out, are turned
off. Check the position of the hands on the water meter dial, and
record the reading.
On odometer style meters, note the
location of the sweep hand. If your meter has a triangular leak
detector, watch to see whether the triangle is moving (at
right).
Without using any water, wait for
approximately 30 minutes, then recheck the meter. If the hand or
the triangle has moved, or if the reading has changed, water is
leaking (or running) somewhere on your property.
If you need assistance to locate your water meter or test for
leaks, please contact the Customer Service Representative at Sweetwater Authority at (619) 420-1413.
Free toilet tank leak detector tablets are available upon
request. To order, please contact Sweetwater Authority's
Conservation Representative at (619) 420-1413, ext. 6883 or
(619) 409-6883.
