Test Your Toilets for Leaks, Share Your Results, and be Entered to Win $25

A leaking toilet could unknowingly be wasting up to 200 gallons of water per day and can potentially raise your water bill. Take the Dye Tab Challenge to find out if you have a toilet leak:

1. Request FREE toilet leak-detecting dye tabs from Santa Rosa Water by mail or pick up, or use a few drops of food coloring.
2. Test your toilet(s). Place the dye tab or food coloring in the toilet tank and wait 15 minutes. If the water in the bowl changes color, there’s a toilet leak.
3. Share your toilet test results with us and be entered to win a $25 gift card.
