Does San Luis Obispo's hard water hurt my plumbing?
the Central Coast's water is hard, scaling water heaters and fixtures and shortening their life. Flushing the heater and adding a softener help everything last longer.
Can earthquakes damage my San Luis Obispo plumbing?
Yes — California quakes shift foundations and shear rigid pipe, cracking water and sewer lines and slab plumbing. Flexible water-heater connectors and an earthquake gas-shutoff valve reduce the risk, and a post-quake leak check is smart in the Central Coast.
What are the signs I need a repipe?
Rusty water, chronic low pressure, and repeat pinhole leaks — especially with galvanized supply or old cast-iron and clay sewer pipe — mean repiping fixes the root problem for good.
Why do copper pipes pinhole in California?
California's hard water corrodes copper from the inside over the years, causing pinhole leaks — repiping in PEX or fresh copper, plus a softener, solves it.
How long does a whole-home repipe take?
Most homes are repiped in one to three days depending on size and layout, with the water back on each night in many cases.
