This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

Dated flow-rate list (gpm) for every fixture checked + Photo of the leak/failed part before repair + Photo of the repaired fixture and the re-test reading after + GPS waypoint of the building

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

1. 1. Bucket-and-stopwatch every accessible fixture to build a dated flow-rate list (gallons per minute) and flag any fixture that will not fully shut.
2. 2. Trace the flagged leak to its source: fixture washer/cartridge, supply line, or joint.
3. 3. Shut the local supply stop, replace the failed part with a code-compliant fitting, and reopen.
4. 4. Re-test the repaired fixture with the bucket and stopwatch to confirm the leak is gone.
5. 5. Hand the building the dated flow list with the repaired fixture marked done.

What counts as done

• Dated flow-rate list (gpm) for every fixture checked
• Photo of the leak/failed part before repair
• Photo of the repaired fixture and the re-test reading after
• GPS waypoint of the building

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Water Efficiency. Water efficiency is the quiet discipline of wasting nothing indoors. The EPA's WaterSense program sets the marks: how many gallons a minute a faucet should pass, how to find the leak that runs a toilet all night, how a household's water bill tells a story. Mastery looks like an auditor who can walk a home in an hour and find every hidden gallon. The skill is built one fixture at a time, which is exactly what this packet asks: measure one flow, find one leak, record one truth about where the water goes.
