| Think you have a water leak?Most water meters have a small, red diamond known as a low flow indicator. This indicator spins if the slightest amount of water flows through the meter. To check for a leak, shut off all the water inside and outside your home. When you're sure everything's off, check the indicator. If it's spinning, you most likely have a leak-and it's time to call a plumber. Want advice on more topics like "how to read your meter" or "what to do if you have water pressure problems"?
