Continually running or water gushing from taps or fixtures generally need to be isolated from the front boundary water meter, however there are some circumstances where the individual tap or fixture can be isolated independently.
Certain types of fixtures and mixer taps have isolation valves connected to them which allows the individual isolation of that fixture.
If you locate the isolation valve(s) for the fixture or tap, turn the handle clockwise or for ¼ turn taps, set the handle to 90deg.
Individual isolation of fixtures allows for the use of water throughout the rest of the property and reduces the emergency.
