  2. 2Flow-indicator triangle (red or white) on the meter face. With all water off inside and outside the home, a triangle that is still moving means there may be a leak.
  3. 3Meter dial and sweep hand, which record the water that passes through the meter.
  4. 4Service line from the meter to the house. If the triangle still moves with the house shut-off valve closed, the leak is likely underground on this line.
  5. 5House shut-off valve. Close it and check the triangle again: if it stops, the leak is elsewhere on the property.

Signs You Need Leak Detection in Spring Valley, NV

Most Spring Valley calls start with a bill, not a puddle.

89117 and Peccole Ranch: one ZIP split between Spring Valley and the City of Las Vegas, both on LVVWD.

Use up, nothing changed at home

More gallons than the same month last year, with the same household and watering days. That gap is the first number we check.

A continuous-flow contact from LVVWD

LVVWD contacts you when its meter logs continuous flow for three days or longer. The notice says water is moving, not where.

The flow indicator keeps turning

Turn off every tap, then watch the red or white triangle on the meter. If it still moves, LVVWD says there may be a leak.

Running water after the sprinklers stop

A trickle at night, after the irrigation cycle ends, often comes from a toilet refilling or a zone valve that never closed.

Damp baseboards or a warm floor

Either can mean a supply line below; thermal and moisture readings show which.

A meter that moves only sometimes

Intermittent movement usually means something that cycles, such as a toilet or a sticking valve.

Our Leak Detection Process in Spring Valley, NV

From the bill to the mark.

  1. Start with the bill date

    It shows how much of LVVWD's 60-day repair window has already passed.

  2. Read the meter with all water off

    A moving indicator confirms water is leaving somewhere.

  3. Split yard from house

    With the house valve closed, a moving meter points to the buried line before it.

  4. Rule out toilets and irrigation

    Each intermittent source is tested alone, with everything else closed.

  5. Pinpoint the line

    Listening, pressure and thermal checks narrow it to one spot we mark for your plumber.

A second look when a search failed

If an earlier search came up empty, our fixed order of checks often finds what was skipped.

Only detection

We are not selling the repair, so the readings decide what gets opened, not a quote.

No promises we cannot keep

Nobody can promise every leak is found, and adjustment credits are LVVWD's decision, never ours.

FAQs About Leak Detection in Spring Valley, NV

Is Spring Valley part of the City of Las Vegas?

No. Spring Valley, NV is unincorporated Clark County. Its homes are LVVWD accounts, so LVVWD's flow notice and Leak Adjustment rules apply.

Do you cover 89117, 89146 and 89147?

Yes, all three, including Southwest Spring Valley in 89147 and the Peccole Ranch side of 89117, which is City of Las Vegas but still LVVWD.

How long do I have to fix a leak for the LVVWD adjustment?

Repairs must be done within 60 days of the billing date when the leak was discovered, then an online application within 90 days of the repair. Locating early leaves room inside that window.

Can I call outside business hours in Spring Valley, NV?

Yes. Calls are answered 24/7, nights and holidays included. Have the billing date handy; it shows how much of LVVWD's 60-day repair window is left.

Does a high bill always mean a leak?

No. Summer watering and household changes raise use too. LVVWD's adjustment needs use up at least 50 percent, a useful gut-check against the same month last year.
