If you had an emergency in your home and needed to turn off your gas supply, would you make that possible? Will you be able to turn it off from the main gas service? If one of the pipes in your house broke, would you be able to turn off water supply to your main line?
An emergency shut off valve is an important device that every home and business gas and water lines should have. If you own an older home or building, chances of finding this vital device are small because such structures weren’t installed with an emergency shut off valve. Without an emergency shut off valve, your home or building is at risk if there is an emergency related to your gas line and water supply system. The damage caused by a broken pipe is really bad but what’s worse is the damage that your gas line would do if there was a fire or an earthquake.
Protect yourself, your family and your home by making sure you know where the emergency shut off valve is. The shut off valve of the main gas line is located near the gas meter outside your home. As for the water supply system, you have two options for the shut off valve. First, you can turn off the water supply from within your house through a valve on top of the hot water tank. Normally, this is the valve that allows water supply into your water heater. Secondly, you can look under your hose spigot and you will find a valve that completely shuts off your water supply. If there is no water emergency shut off valve here, check inside the water meter on the street side of your house.
