Become a leak detective! March 16 – 22 is WaterSense Fix-a-Leak Week. Get ready to track down those leaky toilets, faucets, and pipes in your home!
Did you know that, according to the Capital Regional District (CRD), household leaks can make up to 14% of all indoor water use? The most common leaky household fixtures are faucets, showerheads, pipes, irrigation systems, and toilets.

All leak detection kits include:

Kits are available Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Municipal Hall (1620 Mills Road) during Fix-a-Leak Week. Visit www.crd.ca/leaks to learn more.
