What causes the need for repiping?
There are a variety of factors that can create a need for repiping. Overall, any significant malfunctioning in existing piping either necessitate repiping or make it worthwhile.
- Low water pressure: This drop in pressure from the sinks and showers may indicate more serious issues in your piping system such as leaks and cracks.
- Discolored water: When water has a yellowish or brown cast to it, it is often due to rusty pipes. If you suspect rusting in your piping, our professionals can complete tests to identify whether or not this is the case. Homes built before 1970 often have galvanized piping. This was once thought to be unable to rust, but over time these types of pipes have deteriorated. Rust can build up in the pipes causing blockages.
- Leaks: Chemicals in your water can deteriorate older types of pipe such as copper. Once numerous leaks are found, it could be more cost effective to have our professional service repipe the home rather than simply replace smaller sections.
- Code violations: Unfortunately, there are situations where a home may have illegal piping. Polybutylene is a piping material that is no longer approved by the national standard plumbing code. This material can cause serious and sudden structural damage when it begins to deteriorate. If cases where is or other non approved materials are used, we would definitely repipe. It is important for safety and functionality that your pipes meet all current building codes.
What types of materials exist?
Homeowners can choose from a variety of materials for their piping. PVC pipes are the most common choice for repiping in the home. This material is sturdy, durable, and very cost effective.
- Copper: Copper pipe has been in use for over 80 years. It is the best choice when it comes to longevity. It won’t contaminate your drinking water, and old copper pipes can easily be recycled.
- Cross–linked Polyethylene: This material is ideal for retrofitting older homes as it can be snaked through the walls with ease due to its flexibility. It is able to curve and reach around corners, and no seams are needed. It has existed for 30 years, but has only gained in popularity over the past ten.
- Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride: This material is very similar to standard PVC pipes. The addition of extra chloride in its formation makes it well suited for drinking water.
- Polypropylene: This is the best choice for those who want to "go green". This product is both durable and safe.
