Hello,
New member; looks like a great Forum.
Have a 35 yr old house, and it looks like it was plumbed originally using the thin wall Copper tubing called Type "M"
Every yr it seems to develop a pinhole leak, somewhere.
Driving me crazy, to say nothing of the expense.
Is this Type M still Legal ?
Used very much, anywhere ?
Are pinhole leaks in 35 yr old installations, irrespective if the type of copper pipe used, very "common" ?
Other than re-plumbing everything, any suggestiuons ?
-Ever hear anything about that internal epoxy coating treatment ?
Any thoughts on Pinhole leaks in general would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob
