does your home have grey plastic water lines?? Quest plastic tubing is failing causing major water damage for many home owners

Copper here (1950's/60's Aussie ex housing department house) but a long time ago water (and gas) pipes used to be steel. I haven't seen houses here made with plastic press-fit or properly joined 'poly pipe' plumbing but then again I'm not in the building game nor in a position to afford to build a new home.

Always had copper. But I've heard this is an ongoing issue among owners in certain residental developments.

Thank goodness, no. I think mine are lead.

Are you talking about PEX, CPVC, or is quest it's own thing?

@2ndtimeguy I am not aware of this usage, but your explanation seems plausible (though why one would replace failed Cu with PLASTIC is a bit of a head-scratcher, for me).

No. This was allowed for pressurized water, not simply waste?

@lpthehermit Where was this? I have only seen plastic as drain...or perhaps from a submerged pump's casing to a point inside a basement...

@SomeMichGuy many new-build homes in 80-90's had this installed, cheaper than copper plumbing lines
