      It only means you have a leak somewhere. Have you tried checking your toilets? Sometimes the water closet keeps on being filled up because of a loose flapper that lets water continuously drain down the bowl.

    So if there's a leak that they should not spin? Or does it spin when you turn the water on in the house? To the point if everything is off, and you see it's still spinning, that means there's a leak? You didn't really explain this too well and your video please clarify. Thanks in advance

  • @unlocking_potential123
    @unlocking_potential123 Год назад

    Sir for example po turn off na yung mga faucet, showers and everything inside the household. ASide from a possible leak inside. Meron po bang chance na yung leak is from the outside pipe? like yung leak is meters away sa bahay namin kasi medyu may distance din kasi yung pipe nmn mula sa bahay namin patungo sa main pipe ng water company Kasi turn off na yung lahat inside. Pero umiikot pan rin yung indicator slowly.

    • @HanDIYman007
      @HanDIYman007  Год назад

      Yes, any pipeline between your water meter and the faucets/showers/toilet can be a potential source of leak. Pero kung yung leak ay sa pipeline from your main water meter going back to the water provider, hindi niyo na problema yon at wala dapat impact sa pag-ikot ng metro niyo.

    Good day, I would like to inquire if a water meter has a check valve because we have a water tank and we fill it every morning. We noticed that we still have a large volume of consumption even though we are only 3 at our house. Is it possible that there is downstream movement of water from our tank to other consumer which the meter does not detect? Thank you.

    • @HanDIYman007
      @HanDIYman007  3 года назад +1

      Water meters have check valves, or more specifically, along the pipe that connects your water meter. Try observing your leak indicator if it is moving even if no one in your home is using water, as shown in the video.

      Kung umaandar pa rin yung meter kahit off lahat ng gripo, then it means meron leak or tagas somewhere sa water pipes mo. Minsan mahirap hanapin, lalo na kung yung mga tubo niyo ay nakalubog sa semento or lupa. Pero kelangan niyo ito mapaayos kasi sayang ang tubig and lalaki lalo bill niyo.

Kung hindi niyo pa mapaayos agad, suggestion ko is off niyo muna yung water meter tuwing nasa labas /trabaho kayo.
