Water Shutoff Valves

Living in Naperville means we see a lot of rain, and we’re all too aware there’s no main shut-off valve for stormwater, precipitation, or other outdoor sources of water.

Appliances and other parts of the plumbing can go wrong in any part of the country, and here we do have some control.

Water pours out of pipes at 10 to 15 gallons a minute, which is delightful for showers and for washing clothes, but less so when the water is soaking into the carpet, the subfloor, and the ceiling of the room below. Knowing how to shut off the water before we arrive can help you prevent parts of the house from floating to Kentucky.

The Main Shutoff Valve allows water from the city to flow to your house. There is probably one outside that requires a special tool to open it, as well as one inside the house. That one is usually in the basement or in a utility room. 

Shutoff valves for kitchen and bathroom sinks are almost always under the sinks themselves, near the bottom of the cabinets.

Shower and tub shutoff valves may be under the sink or in the basement or utility room directly under the bathroom.

The shutoff valve for the washing machine or the dishwasher should be right behind the machines themselves.

The toilet shutoff valves are usually underneath the toilet tanks.

Timeout for Trivia!

The idea sent the so-called minds at the Desk for Useless Information wandering to the plumbing section, so…

The first flush toilet is credited to King Minos of Crete in 18th century B.C.E., but the Neolithic village in the UK, Skara Brae, had a primitive flush system 1200 years before that.
