Leaks can affect more than just your water bill. If they remain undetected, your home could suffer major water damage, and your family could be at risk of breathing in toxic mold spores. Luckily, there are ways to avoid these issues. National Fix a Leak Week, which takes place this year from March 19 to 25, is the perfect time to have Henry’s Services address leaks, water damage, and mold removal in your Anchorage, AK, home.

What Is National Fix a Leak Week?

The upcoming Fix a Leak Week marks the 10^th annual event hosted by the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) WaterSense partnership program. The event aims to teach homeowners across the country how to detect and fix minor leaks from dripping faucets or worn toilet flappers. Their leak detection tips include assessing your water bill and usage during the colder months of the year, checking your water meter before and after a two-hour, no-use period, and adding food coloring to your toilet tank to see if it leaks into the bowl.

With events across the country, National Fix a Leak Week offers plenty of opportunities to see demonstrations of leak detection and fixes, demonstrations on water-saving products, and more. The activities are family friendly, so adults and kids alike can learn about water conservation.
