I have a likely water leak and would appreciate any help. :'(
- My water meter is running with no water being used in the house.
- When I shut off the main water valve to the house, the meter stops.
- So, the leak is not between the meter and the house. It is past the main shutoff valve.
- When I turn the main valve back on and shut off water at the water heater intake, the meter stops. This gives me cold water in the house, and no hot water, and no water leak.
- So, most likely(?), the leak is somewhere in the hot water piping?
- There is no visible water spill anywhere. If I read the meter correctly, it leaked about 700 galons in a 24-hour period. If it were in a wall or on the floor, I would have seen it.
