Damage From Hard Water On Your Copper and Galvanized Pipes
All plumbing pipes metal or not will have a reaction and will eventually clog and reduce the internal diameter. This is why many Salt Lake area homeowners that have copper or galvanized pipes hire us to repipe their entire home. However, this is also noticed at a slower pace for nonmetallic pipes such as polybutylene.
As water is flowing through these pipes, you or your family members are taking a shower with this contaminated water. The same water is also washing your laundry and clothing and more.
It is true that copper and galvanized pipes react differently to hard water. However, the results can be shocking. As a homeowner, we are all so busy with life’s daily tasks.
We often don’t think about such things until one sees the build-up in their plumbing pipes. Wow, we say to our selves, this is the water in my plumbing system in my home? However true this is, we have a permanent solution for your home and family!
