Generally, each home should have a shut-off valve located on their house line to turn the water off, inside the home, in case of leaks and/or ruptures in your house lines. The shut-off valve is located on the main line coming into your home. To locate your shut-off valve, walk around your home looking for a pipe that comes out of the ground & turns into your home. This line generally has an outside water faucet located on it, but it should also have an additional valve this is your shut-off valve.
