#FixaLeakWeek is an opportunity to encourage Americans to identify and repair household leaks. For another year, we are joining the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and WaterSENSE by sharing their tools and resources to promote water sustainability in communities across the country. Take five minutes to track down leaks around your home. Look for drips and puddles under sinks and tub spouts indoors and hose bibbs outdoors, all indicate a leak that might just need tightening at the pipe joint. 💧
