Where is the main water shut off valve in my house?
The valve is typically located within 3 to 5 feet of where the water main enters the home. If you don’t find it on the front wall, check for a mechanical room, or near the water heater or furnace. In a crawl space or with slab construction, the shut-off valve may be right inside the crawl space.

Where can I turn off the water in my house?
If you live in a colder climate, you’ll typically find the main shutoff in the basement near the front of the house. In warmer climates, it will be outside your home attached to an exterior wall or in an underground box with a removable lid. There are two types of main shutoff valves: the gate valve and the ball valve.
Where is the main water shut off valve outside?
Look for a rectangular or round cover that will be near the edge of your property, often between the curb and the sidewalk. Some water main valves are located along an alley, rather than the street. The cover may be metal or plastic, and it might say “water meter” to help with identification.
