Once a year, exercise your main valve. Turn it off and then back on again. This keeps it from getting rusty and stiff. It’s like yoga for your plumbing—stretching prevents injury!
Also, check those tiny fixture valves. If they leak after you twist them, you might need a new washer. That’s a cheap fix, and it means your superpowers are fully operational.
And hey—if you ever feel overwhelmed, just remember: water always follows the path of least resistance. You, my friend, are about to become its resistance trainer.
