Plano highlights Fix a Leak Week; city urges residents to check household plumbing
Summary
Plano promoted Fix a Leak Week through March 23, noting common household leaks and that fixing them can save about 10% on water bills; average household leak volume mentioned.
Steve Stoler, Plano’s media relations director, noted the city was observing Fix a Leak Week through Sunday, March 23, and encouraged residents to look for household leaks.
Stoler listed common sources of household leaks as worn toilet flappers, dripping faucets and leaking valves, and said many such leaks are often easy to fix with a few tools and inexpensive hardware. "Fixing easily corrected household water leaks can save you about 10% on your water bill," he said, and the broadcast cited that average household leaks can account for nearly 10,000 gallons of water wasted every year.
The segment offered general conservation guidance but did not provide contact details for city plumbing assistance or rebate programs on-air.
