Old Town is one of the oldest places in San Diego County. Corroded pipes can cause flooding in homes and businesses. The lifespan of pipes depends on the materials the pipes are made from.
Copper pipes last sixty to eighty years. Galvanized pipes last forty to fifty years and cast iron pipes last 50 to 65 years. If you notice visible signs of corrosion, your pipes are reaching the end of their lifespan and should be replaced soon. The average lifespan of a water shut-off valve is only twenty years, so you’ll want to inspect and replace it as needed.
