However, sometimes the water fails to reach us through that system and drips out where we do not want it… causing all kinds of issues. If the leak is not addressed immediately, it can result in water damage, mold and you guessed right– high water bills! Plumbing System O Rings are used to help prevent leaks.

O-rings are basically small, round rings constructed from rubber or additional materials. They are designed to wrap around the edge of a pipe or valve and provide a tight seal. The seal is super crucial here as it helps prevent water leaking where it should not. If it's loose, water will get trough and you may have a mess.
