Here are some helpful tips from the Insurance Information Institute to keep your home protected from unwanted water:

Maintain Your Indoor Plumbing Systems

Take the time to learn and understand your indoor plumbing systems. For instance, knowing the main water shut-off valve in your home and how to shut the water supply off can eliminate stress and save money on costly repairs and time.

• Inspect appliance hoses and faucets. Make it a practice every year to check hoses leading to water heaters, dishwashers, washing machines, and refrigerator ice makers.
• You may also want to invest in a water leak monitoring and shut-off system that can alert you to any leakage issues. Immediately replace any hoses that have cracks or leaks, and replace them every five to seven years.
• Inspect the seal and caulking around showers and tubs to make sure they are watertight. Reseal them if necessary.
• Shut off the washing machine while away on vacation
• Check plumbing and heating pipes for cracks and leaks. If you see visible signs of wear, have these repairs made immediately.
