Based on findings from the Alliance for Water Efficiency, an average home loses between 2,000 to nearly 20,000 gallons of water annually thanks to leaky pipes. While dripping faucets and leaky water heaters aren’t difficult to find, other leaks in the toilet flapper valves or cracked water supply lines can go undiscovered for a long time.
Even relatively minor leaks are costly. You’re paying for wasted water, and leaks can wreak havoc on walls, flooring and other structural elements of the property. That’s why it’s still important to find and fix leaks, no matter how unimportant they might seem.
