I looked everywhere but cannot locate my Main Valve? could they be hidden inside a wall? I have a finished basement.
Thanks.

There may not be a main vent, or someone took it out. And yes it's quite possibly someone did you the disservice of burying it inside a finished wall, in which case it's time to go hunting.0
