If you own a home that is over 40 years old, there is a good chance that the supply lines in your home are galvanized pipes or zinc-coated iron pipes. As these pipes age, they deteriorate. The result is the formation of rust. When you see the deterioration process begin, evidenced by decreased water pressure, rust debris interfering with the operation of your faucets and shower valves, or discoloration of your water it is best to upgrade to a better plumbing system.
If your home has CPVC waterlines which were mostly used in the 1980s and 1990s, these pipes become brittle with age. You are actually in danger of having leaks (minor or major) caused by breakage of those pipes, at any time. You may want to start planning for a total replacement of these pipes before you start having problems.
