LEAK GUIDE

How to Use Fresno Water-Use Data to Spot a Possible Irrigation Leak

An irrigation leak is not always obvious. Some underground leaks show up first as unusual water consumption, weak sprinkler pressure, or a persistently wet area.

Fresno’s EyeOnWater Resource

The City of Fresno provides information about EyeOnWater, which can help eligible customers review water-use patterns and set alerts.

What to Look for in the Yard

  • Wet spots that never seem to dry
  • A valve box that stays full of water
  • One zone suddenly losing pressure
  • Water bubbling up while a zone runs
  • Unexplained water flow when irrigation is supposed to be off

Data Is a Clue, Not a Diagnosis

Water-use information can point you toward a problem, but the irrigation system still needs to be inspected to locate the cause.
