DO YOU NEED NEW COPPER WATER PIPING?

Can your family take a comfortable shower, wash dishes, water the lawn, and wash the laundry at the same time? When you draw water into the bath tub does the water look rust colored? Are you sure there are no leaks in the walls or under the house?

  • Leaky Pipes?
  • Low Water Pressure?
  • Yellow or Rust-Colored Water?
  • Bad Tasting Water?
  • Inconsistent Hot & Cold Temperature Changes in Shower?
  • Rust Spots On Washed Clothing?


A professional site inspection is critical to a successful repiping process. Standard repiping projects include installation of all new hot and cold domestic water piping from the water source to all existing faucets and fixtures. Unless specifically included in the proposal, drain replacement and fixtures are not included. 

Repiping is a process of installing a new copper repipe system. This process usually includes removing old readily accessible pipe and then installing the new plumbing system. Included in the process is the installation of new USA type "L" hard copper, properly strapped and secured, install kwik 1/4 turn ball type water stops, install new stainless steel water supply lines. After the new piping system is installed the water is turned back on, the system is pressure tested and then flushed out. The repiping process takes 1-3 days to install the new piping system. After the actual plumbing replacement, there will be some required wall patching. 

There are various materials used in re-piping, in water supply re-piping some of the materials are metal and perhaps some plastic pipes. The metal pipes are galvanized steel or iron, brass, and copper. The plastic pipes are Poly Vinyl Chloride PVC, Chlorine Poly Vinyl Chloride CPVC, Poly Ethylene PE, Polybutylene PB, and Kitec. Most of these plastic pipe systems will end in lawsuits. Part of the problem is with the fittings that are often cheaply made with little quality control by a verity of overseas companies. Plastic pipes also have questionable joining methods. Plastic pipes are glued, crimped, and banded. When plastic pipes blow a joint they blow apart and result in water damage. Plastics become brittle with age and heat. There are also issues about the molecular structure of plastics and the resins from which they are made. In rare instances a CPVC repipe maybe recommended where the water PH levels are a problem. 

Copper is the proven choice. However, copper is becoming more expensive. Copper that is used in re-piping should be hard USA manufactured copper, properly installed and protected. Avoid re-piping with soft copper. When the soil is "Hot" protect the copper pipe with plastic sleeving. It is not recommended that copper be buried under concrete slabs. Copper pipe that is buried should be buried in sand or clean soil free of rocks and boulders that can damage the copper pipe when compacted. Also anywhere pipes make penetrations through concrete it should be wrapped or protected and given adequate clearances for movement and settling.

Properly installed USA CDA copper has a 50 year warranty.

In order to help homeowners, potential homeowners, and consumers make educated decisions when it comes to plumbing, the CDA has developed a 12-point Plumbing Test. Not surprisingly, copper is the only plumbing material that can answer "yes" to each of the following questions. How does your plumbing material match up?

Benefits of Copper Pipe Include:
  • Proven long-term durability and re-sale value
  • Earthquake tolerate and fire resistant
  • Widely accepted by all building codes
  • Flexible material that can be bent to avoid obstructions and minimize joints
  • Long manufacturer's warranty
    - 50 Years
  • Increase the value of the home

The CDA 12-Point Plumbing Test:

1. Does your plumbing material have a long-term, proven performance record?
2. Is it permeable; can it block contaminants from penetrating its walls?
3. Can the joints withstand rapid pressure and temperature changes?
4. Will it perform well in all weather, and is easily thawed, if necessary?
5. Does it resist punctures and abrasions and not become brittle with age?
6. Does it inhibit the breeding of harmful germs?
7. Will it not burn, or give off smoke or toxic fumes, when exposed to fire?
8. Will it withstand the weather and the sun's ultraviolet rays in outdoor applications?
9. Is it maintenance-free and has a low lifetime cost of ownership?
10. Will it add to your home's resale value?
11. Does it have nationwide approval of building inspectors and engineers?
12. Does it have inherent quality and value, or offer 'false economy' like some competing materials?
