Use a meter key to turn the valve clockwise until it is completely shut off, ensuring no water can flow into the house plumbing system. This is a crucial safety step to prevent flooding during the repair.

Goal: Turn off the main water supply to the house at the water meter to prevent water flow during the repair.
