Common Water Leaks
The most common water leak in a home is through a toilet. Most likely it is due to an old or worn-out flapper (valve seal) located inside the toilet tank.
To check for a toilet leak:
– Remove the tank cover. Put in Food Coloring or Kool-Aid into the tank.
– DO NOT FLUSH!
– Wait about 30-minutes or even longer.
– If the water in the toilet bowl is clear, there are no leaks.
– If the water in the toilet bowl has turned colors, there is a leak in the tank.
Additional water leaks in a home: Faucets, Showerheads, Hot Water Heater Tanks, Sewer Line and Under the Home’s Foundation.
