Turning Off the Water
To turn off the water to your house follow these steps:
- Locate your consumer valve
- Consumer valves work best when they are near the meter. Sometimes they are located where pipes enter the house or near the hot water heater.
- Turn the consumer valve a quarter turn counter-clockwise
- The consumer valve handle should be in the on position, parallel to the pipe. To turn it off, turn the valve a 1/4 turn so that it is perpendicular to the pipe as shown below.
- If you cannot locate or turn off the consumer valve, call Sweetwater Authority to have a member of our staff turn off the meter valve.
