Why You Should Replace Galvanized Steel Pipes
If your home has galvanized steel pipes, you should consider replacing them with pipes of another material. Why? Some reasons include:
- These pipes can rust and corrode quickly, which could lead to a potential burst.
- They can clog easily, leading to decreased water pressure.
- These pipes were typically installed in older homes and buildings. With time they will show signs of aging and wear and tear.
