Methods to Prevent Water Leaks

Auto Shut-Off Valves

Installing an auto shut-off valve is a good option. By closing the valve, this will swiftly and simply turn off the water supply in the event of a leak. If you have a serious leak and need to stop more damage, this could save your system.

Drain Pans

Some water heaters come equipped with drain pans. In the event of a leak, these pans will let the water to exit the tank. This could lessen the chance of flooding in your house. Check to determine if your water heater has a drain pan, and if not, think about having one put. You must make sure that a line connects the pan to an exterior drain, if one is already placed on your furnace. In this manner, if the pan does fill, the water will be able to flow away safely.
