Theaverage household's leaks can account for nearly 10,000 gallons of water wasted every year and ten percent of homes have leaks that waste 90 gallons or more per day. Common types of leaks found in the home are worn toilet flappers, dripping faucets, and other leaking valves. These types of leaks are often easy to fix, requiring only a few tools and hardware that can pay for themselves in water savings. Fixing easily corrected household water leaks can save homeowners about 10 percent on their water bills.

Old and worn faucet washers and gaskets frequently cause leaks in faucets. A leaky faucet that drips at the rate of one drip per second can waste more than 3,000 gallons per year. That's the amount of water needed to take more than 180 showers! Many tutorials are available online for how to fix a wide variety of faucets. Here are a few examples from our partners:


Our wide range of gas leak detectors and leak detection equipment includes innovative helium leak detectors, hydrogen leak detectors, vacuum leak detectors, refrigerant leak detectors and much more, for a variety of markets and applications.


To receive the rebate, you must agree to allow SNWA to periodically conduct research through phone calls, surveys, and monitoring of water use to determine the long-term benefits of various water-smart technologies.


Do you have a leak in or around your home? Hire a qualified plumber in Southern Nevada who can assist with issues associated with leaks. Water Smart Plumbers have been trained in water efficiency through free, SNWA-sponsored workshops.


On July 1, our combined water/sewer/stormwater rates will increase by 6.24 percent. Customers will also see changes to stormwater charge calculations and expanded eligibility for Clean River Rewards. Learn more about the services your Portland utility bills pay for here.


Customers may qualify for bill adjustments when property-side leaks impact utility bills.



Each account is eligible to receive one adjustment during a 12-month period for an underground or outdoor leak that does not go into the sewer system and one adjustment for a leak that does go into the sewer system (such as a toilet leak.) Customers may request adjustments after leaks have been repaired. A city staff person will check the water meter to verify that the leak has been fixed.


Customers must make reasonable efforts to locate the leak and initiate repairs within 30 days of the City's or customer's initial notification of increased usage. Find more information on how to check for leaks. Repairs must be completed within 90 days after the customer was notified of increased usage. Exceptions for extraordinary circumstances may be considered through the appeal process. Water loss due to theft, vandalism, or construction damage is not covered and is the responsibility of the customer.


The City of Portland ensures meaningful access to City programs, services, and activities to comply with Civil Rights Title VI and ADA Title II laws and reasonably provides: translation, interpretation, modifications, accommodations, alternative formats, auxiliary aids and services.

All these objects were retained by YJIT, this is clearly shown by the yjit_root node in the top of the dependency tree!After finding the root cause I opened an issue for the YJIT team, which promptly fixed it.


The current tooling in Ruby to troubleshoot memory leaks is pretty advanced. Generally, an effective approach is to use rbtrace, to extract a heap dump (with object trace allocation enabled); and then analyze it via heapy, sheap, or any other similar tool.


The highest possible sensitivity.

If you want to find leaks faster for your customers, try the Fieldpiece DR82 Infrared Refrigerant Leak Detector. Our newest detector can sniff out leaks at


If it seems like your leak detector is no longer picking up leaks or is not as sensitive as it was when you first bought it, try replacing the filter. This should fix the issue. If this does not fix the issue try replacing the sensor


Yes. For use only by qualified and certified technicians in the safe use, handling, and transporting of refrigerants. Please refer to flammable refrigerant safety guides, regional codes and legislation for more information.


Looking back on the media fiasco side of this, it seems to trace back to statements Cotton made at a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing on January 30. This appears to have been a hearing with senior military commanders from U.S. Africa Command and U.S. Southern Command. I think talking about a virus outbreak in China probably sounded like a bit of a crank thing to do, but Senators say weird stuff at hearings all the time.


A third explanation is that China was purposely playing down the health emergency, as it did during the SARS outbreak of 2003. Back then, China was heavily criticized for reacting slowly, withholding information about the outbreak for too long, and putting economic considerations ahead of public health. The virus eventually killed 774 people and infected more than 8,000.


Although much remains unknown about the coronavirus, experts generally dismiss the idea that it was created by human hands. Scientists who have studied the coronavirus say it resembles SARS and other viruses that come from bats. While contagious, so far it appears to largely threaten the lives of older people with chronic health issues, making it a less-than-effective bioweapon.


Cotton essentially failed in his effort to persuade Trump, and as far as I can tell assimilated himself to the emerging GOP consensus that a few hundred thousand dead here and there is not a huge problem.


When New York Magazine ran its lab leak theory story in January 2021, I tweeted disparaging things about it only to be told quietly by a number of research scientists that I was wrong and plenty of people in the science community thought this was plausible.


By March, Biden was in office and his team was arguing that China was not being sufficiently forthcoming about the origin of the virus. In May, a distinguished group of scientists called for a more rigorous inquiry.


On Monday, I wrote that alcohol taxes should be raised, citing research about crime and liver disease. If new research emerged indicating that alcohol was more or less harmful than I previously thought, I would revise my estimate of the optimal alcohol tax.


Another important issue is the role of expert virologists dunking on the lab-leak theory. This is a glaring conflict of interest-acknowledging that COVID may have been one big screw-up jeopardizes the continued practice of this entire scientific discipline as we know it.


As I believe I have said before, I spent the month of February 2020 intensely focused on covering the seemingly imminent victory of Bernie Sanders in the Democratic Party\u2019s presidential primary. I dedicated approximately 0% of my journalistic energy to covering what was, in retrospect, the clearly more significant story of a novel coronavirus outbreak starting in Wuhan, China and clearly spreading to other parts of the world.


I was aware of the virus in much the way that I am aware of the National Hockey League, but I wasn\u2019t paying attention to it as a journalist. The first piece I published on Covid on March 12 holds up pretty well I think, but it was way too late in terms of the kind of tough travel restrictions that, in retrospect, the country needed.


Due to not paying any attention, I missed the furious initial skirmish in what\u2019s become the Long Discourse Wars over the idea that the SARS-CoV-2 virus came from the Wuhan Institute of Virology rather than originating naturally in bats.


What happened is that Tom Cotton raised this idea in February in his capacity as a China hawk, and then again in March as part of a nonsensical attack on Joe Biden. He got shouted down pretty hard by scientists on Twitter, by formal institutions, and by the media. Then this kind of pachinkoed down into being a politics story where writers and fact-checkers who didn\u2019t cover science at all \u201Cknew\u201D that this was a debunked story that right-wingers were pushing for their nefarious ends. I think it\u2019s increasingly clear that this was a huge fiasco for the mainstream press that got way over their skis in terms of discourse-policing, and there is in fact a serious scientific question as to where the virus came from \u2014 a question that we will probably never be able to answer because the Chinese government has clearly committed to one viewpoint on this and isn\u2019t going to allow a thorough investigation.


I think in all three of these cases, the answer is basically that nothing would be different. This is not to apologize for the bad coverage but, if anything, to underscore how egregious it was to lean so heavily into the Tom Cotton Is Wrong narrative. The subsidiary premise of that narrative was always that Cotton was doing something extremely nefarious. But while Cotton does indeed have a lot of opinions I disagree with, it\u2019s just not true that this lab leak idea is now or ever was very closely linked to any hot-button policy controversies.


He was referring to an article in the Lancet, a very establishment publication. Max Fisher at The New York Times used that same Lancet article to do a piece arguing that the virus situation in Wuhan illustrated the flaws in China\u2019s authoritarian governance model \u2014 that local officials would not circulate \u201Cbad news\u201D if it would be seen as unwelcome to top leaders.
