Water service enters your house with a lot of pressure. So,whenever you close or open your main water valve (or reallyany water service valve, like the ones under your sinks or theones for your outside water spigots), it is important to do soslowly as this allows your system to adjust to the waterpressure. Water service is like an oncoming train, closingwater valves quickly can cause pipes or fixtures behind thevalve to malfunction or break. Likewise, opening water valvesquickly can also put too much pressure on pipes and/or fixturesand cause them to malfunction or break. So remember, evenin an emergency situation, slowly open or close those valves.Should you forget... Give us a call: 404-456-1144
