anyone with decades old metal galvanized water supply lines...REPLACE SOON AS POSSIBLE!!

you will be sooooo glad you do. ive spent my entire life in homes with galvanized plumbing until this week. had to hire an extra pair of hands to help with this major project. goodbye itchy skin and scalp, musty housed smell...hello soft hair, house now smells fresh crisp and clean, and the laundry OMG!!! WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT!! i doubt anyone can afford all copper today, we installed PEX. should have done this years ago.

I replaced mine with all copper 40 years ago, including a one inch main line into the house. I did all the digging, routing, soldering, laundry hook up, hot water tank, and fixture work myself.

PEX seems to be the de-facto standard. I have old galvanized pipes, and replacement is on the list, but there are a lot of things on the list ahead of that.
