Quando se trata de localizar válvulas de fechamento, parece que os antipodeans são mais robustamente individualistas do que os locais mais conformistas que eu habito.
Live in a house?
You’ll find the valve near the front of your property ... our valve is located inside the front fence near the boundary with our neighbour. For those of you with larger properties, it might be outside the front fence.
Live in an apartment?
There should be an isolation valve that controls your apartment’s water only. It’s usually under the laundry sink, but also look under the kitchen sink. Look for a tap that appears to be doing nothing. Draw its location and tape it inside the pantry door.

use the main shutoff valve to turn off the water supply to the entire house. You'll find the main shutoff valve on the inside or outside of your house where the main water supply pipe enters. Turn the valve clockwise to shut it off.
