If you've already determined you have leaks and you find these step-by-step solutions aren't enough to stop them, it might be time to replace your leaking fixtures. When you consult with a plumbing professional, and look for the WaterSense label when considering a new toilet, faucet, or showerhead, you could increase your home's water efficiency. See a complete list of WaterSense labeled products.



WaterSense partners across the U.S. and Canada joined EPA in the annual Fix a Leak Week by donning their leak detective hats and grabbing their sleuthing gear (dye tabs, wrench and leak checklist) to find and fix common household leaks. Leaks were detected and fixed in bathrooms – toilets, showerheads and faucets, outside at spigots and in many other locations around the house. These leaks were found by vigilant leak detectives across the country.
