What is Poly-B Piping?
Poly-B, short for polybutylene, is a type of plastic piping that was widely used in residential plumbing systems from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s. While initially popular due to its cost effectiveness and ease of installation, Poly-B has gained a reputation for its susceptibility to premature deterioration and leaks.

The Importance of Replacing Poly-B in Your Home
- Potential for Leaks: Poly-B pipes have been associated with a higher risk of leaks and ruptures, leading to water damage and potential flooding. The aging of these pipes may cause them to be brittle and prone to failure.
- Material Breakdown: Over time, exposure to oxidants in water and various chemicals can lead to the breakdown of Poly-B material, compromising the integrity of the entire plumbing system.
- Insurance Concerns: Due to the known issues with Poly-B plumbing, some insurance companies may be hesitant to provide coverage or may charge higher premiums for homes with this type of piping.
- Diminished Home Value: The presence of Poly-B piping can be a concern for potential homebuyers. Replacing it with more durable materials can enhance the overall value and marketability of your property.
