Upgrade Your Plumbing: The Benefits of Copper Pipes
If your home in San Francisco or San Mateo County was built before the mid-20th century, chances are it still has galvanized steel pipes. While these pipes were once a popular choice, they have several drawbacks that make them less desirable for modern homes.
Why Galvanized Pipes Can Be Problematic:
- Corrosion: Galvanized pipes are susceptible to corrosion, which can lead to leaks, reduced water pressure, and even pipe failure.
- Contamination: Over time, rust and sediment can build up inside galvanized pipes, potentially contaminating your water supply.
- Aesthetics: Galvanized pipes can also be unsightly, especially if they are exposed.
The Benefits of Copper Pipes:
- Longevity: Copper pipes are known for their durability and long lifespan. They can last for decades or even centuries when properly installed and maintained.
- Durability: Copper is a naturally antimicrobial material that resists corrosion and bacterial growth. This helps to ensure clean, safe drinking water.
- Efficiency: Copper pipes can improve water flow and pressure, leading to more efficient appliances and fixtures.
- Value: Upgrading to copper pipes can significantly increase the value of your home.
