In recognition of the EPA WaterSense Program’s Fix a Leak Week, March 18 through 24, 2024, the Sonoma-Marin Saving Water Partnership is encouraging residents to find and fix leaks by sponsoring the Dye Tab Challenge through March 31, 2024. Toilet leaks are often silent and can waste hundreds of gallons of water per day, making the toilet the number one cause for a high-water bill. That is why it is important to test your toilet annually for leaks, or anytime you hear water running or experience ghost flushes (when a toilet refills on its own without being flushed) that might indicate a toilet leak.
To participate, follow the steps below:
Test your toilets for leaks using free dye tablets available from the City of Cotati Administrative Services Department or Police Department or the food coloring sitting in your kitchen.
Join the challenge by submitting the results of your leak test here through March 31, 2024.
Found a leak? Resources for diagnosing and fixing common toilet leaks are available online from the EPA WaterSense Program.
Keep your fingers crossed to win! The Water Saving Partnership will be notifying the five (5) lucky winners in early April.
