Emergency Shut-off Valves

Main Water Shut-Off Valve
A water leak can happen at any time, anywhere, and when you are not home. If you experience a water leak and cannot ID the source of the problem immediately (faucets should have shut-off valves), always go to your main water shut-off and close that valve. If your family will be away from your house for more than a day, you may want to shut off the main water before you leave.

Electrical Main Disconnect
Any electrical problem will often result in a trip breaker/fuse, but there are occasions where for safety reasons, you need to shut off power to the entire house. This is done with a safety disconnect or a main breaker on your main panel.

Gas Shut off Valve
A gas leak can be fatal, if you sense a gas leak, leave the house immediately and call for help. The shut-off valve should be outside, with the gas meter.
