If you have galvanized pipe in your house, now might be a good time to
start replacing it. It will in all likelihood need to be changed when
the time comes to sell the house, or if you decide to change insurers.


You gotta be kidding.....
Galvanized pipe is some of the most durable pipe made.
I dont plan to sell the house, and if some insurer told me I'd have to
replace my steel pipes, I'd quickly tell him he needs to change his
job.... (and show him the door).

And this pipe is not in the house, it's in an underground concrete pit,
where my well storage tank is located. I would not even consider any
other type of pipe in that location. My entire farm is fed from this
pipe.
