Fix a Leak Week

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

Feb. 16, 2016 | 1:00

Every March, during Fix a Leak Week (March 14-20, 2016), EPA’s WaterSense program encourages Americans to check their household plumbing fixtures and irrigation systems for leaks that can waste more than 1 trillion gallons each year. But any time of year is a good time to hunt down leaks that not only waste water, but money and energy too! This PSA reminds you of the steps you can take to Check, Twist, and Replace as you save water for yourself and your community.

EPA’s WaterSense program is dedicated to helping Americans be water-efficient in their homes, both indoors and outdoors.
