Water Saving Tip #4
Fix leaking valves. Look for water running onto sidewalks or over curbs after the sprinkler system is turned off. If water flows constantly when the sprinkler system is off (often there will be mold or algae growing on the cement or ground) that indicates that a valve is not fully closing. A valve that doesn't close usually is caused by a small grain of sand stuck inside the valve. Clean, or simply replace the valve.
