A Word Of Caution About Pipes In Older Homes
Here in the Austin area, we tend to see a lot of older homes with failing cast iron piping. This typically happens in homes that were built before 1970. I brought a sample from a home built in the 50s to show you today, which you can see in the video above. As you can see, the piping is old, brittle, and rusting.
A lot of people are purchasing homes here in the Austin area with piping like this and wondering whether their pipes are good as-is. In our experience, PVC piping is more corrosion-resistant and durable and should be the standard for any home, regardless of when it was built.
