Did you know that the older galvanized steel pipes in homes cause 90% of water flow problems.
After 35-50 years, steel pipes rust from the inside out.
As water passes through the steel pipes, corrosion deposits build up inside and partially block water flow. Some older pipes are so corroded that even a pencil would not fit through the center of the pipe.
In the home inspectors photo – the pipe has corroded through and is dripping water – a waste of natural resources.
Running water through a corroded pipe is turning off a water faucet and the water is becomes discolored due to iron oxide.
If
you live in house plumbed with steel pipes and there’s low water
flow – there’s a good chance that it may be time to re-plumb.
