We're having a plumbing emergency (not related to previous emergencies) and it could all be solved until morning if we could shut the water off. It seems simple. By the water meter, we have a valve on either sight. Righty-tighty. I get it. Down the line there is another valve. That t0o gets tightened.
Now, no water comes out of the faucets anywhere, and the toilets will be bone dry if we flush. However, where we have the problem (busted pipe going to the shower-cold water), the water keeps coming out and coming out. We can't stop it, and we really can't have it seeping our walls and subflooring for the rest of the night.
Why is there water coming out? Three valves, no water coming out anywhere else....how do we stop it????
