How-to: Shut-off Valves to Sinks or Toilet

These are typical water shut-offs located under sinks. While they are not a standard item, they are highly recommended.

The shut-off valve on the left is in the open position, as you can see the valve is parallel to the pipes. The shut-off valve on the right is in the off position because it is perpendicular to the pipes.

To turn the valve on, simply rotate it 90 degrees so that it becomes parallel with the pipes.
