Why You Should Consider Repiping Your Home
When you’re looking to improve your home’s water quality, almost nothing is more effective than repiping. Water filters may seem like a good solution, but in most cases, they only mask the symptoms of contaminated water without actually fixing the problem. Usually, poor water quality is caused by piping that has become corroded or damaged or is failing due to its age or the type of material. Without repiping, your family may also be at risk of having lead in your drinking water.
In contrast, Chula Vista repipe gets to the root cause of your bad water and gives every faucet, sink, shower, and appliance in your home plenty of clean, clear water that will last for many years to come. For your family and everyone in your home, this means better health, cleaner dishes and clothing, longer-lasting appliances, and the peace of mind that comes with knowing your pipes are in good condition and built to last for decades to come.
Many homeowners are reluctant to have their homes repiped due to concerns about cost, time, and invasion of their homes. But a quality California repiping company has the job down to a science and will get the job done right the first time.
Common Water Problems That Affect Its Quality
Many people have tap water in their homes, and it’s not uncommon for that water to have a foul smell, discoloration, or metallic taste. Typically, this is the result of corrosion happening inside your home’s plumbing pipes. This is especially likely if your home has galvanized pipes, which were installed in most homes that were built before 1960. You may also notice pieces of rust or an orange tint in your water, which is another sign of corrosion taking place inside your pipes.
The Disadvantages Of Galvanized Piping
Galvanized pipes are made of steel and coated with a layer of zinc that was intended to extend the life of the pipes and offer resistance to corrosion. But as this layer of zinc erodes over time from the constant flow of water inside the pipes, the corrosion results in the build-up, which is commonly called “scale,” on the inside of the piping. In addition to adversely affecting the quality of your home’s water, the scale also causes a reduction of water pressure throughout your home as it builds up inside your pipes. For this reason, poor water quality and low water pressure are considered to be two of the most common signs that your home is ready for a Ladera Ranch repipe.
Going beyond the quality and pressure of the water in your home, galvanized pipes are a significant concern in homes that have or used to have lead service lines. This is because the corrosion and rust build-up inside your galvanized pipes can retain residual lead that previously flowed into your home’s water supply from the lead pipes. This lead can be released from pipe scale and transmitted into your tap water – presenting a major health concern for everyone but especially for pregnant women, children, the elderly, and people with health conditions.
If your home has ever had any lead piping, the only way to be sure that lead isn’t being carried through your water is to have a California repiping company completely replace both the galvanized and lead pipelines. Even if the original lead service lines were replaced in the past, the galvanized piping that is still installed in your home can continue to be a source of lead in your drinking water, even many years after the lead pipes have been removed.
If galvanized pipes are still in your home, it’s recommended that you have your home repiped with copper or PEX plumbing lines. These materials will remediate the negatives of having galvanized piping but also have their advantages and disadvantages. PEX piping is inexpensive, easy to install, and a good option in places with temperature extremes. Copper pipes are reliable and can be installed both inside and outside of your home.

No matter whether you choose PEX or copper pipes, Chula Vista repipe is the best way to improve the quality of your home.
