Default Epoxy Internal Coatings For Copper House Water Lines To Eliminate

Hello,

Have had a few pinhole leaks in house Copper water pipes.

Certainly don't want to re-plumb the whole house !

Anyone have any experience with the epoxy lining treatment for these
house water pipes ? Please see:
http://www.toolbase.org/Technology-I...xy-pipe-lining

Was also particularly wondering about:

- Health safety aspects of drinking water thru epoxy pipes ?

- how do they handle pumping the epoxy with all the valves in the house;
faucets, shower valves, etc. ?

- what happens at the 90 degree elbows ?

- how "popular" is this technique ? Proven, experimental, etc. ?

- what are the negatives and caveats to this approach; there are
undoubtedly, I would think, some ? Cost aspects ?

Thanks,
Bob
