At Heat Busters Inc., we’ve seen how damaging water leaks can be—destroying walls, flooring, furniture, and even your home’s structural integrity. In San Diego, hard water conditions (450+ ppm) accelerate pipe corrosion, increasing the risk of costly plumbing failures.
Why Water Leak Prevention Matters in San Diego
Hard water in Southern California is high in minerals like calcium and magnesium. While not harmful to your health, it causes:
- Cause scale buildup inside pipes
- Lead to premature corrosion
- Increase the risk of pinhole leaks and burst pipes
Even a small hidden leak can lead to mold growth, expensive repairs, and thousands in property damage if left undetected.
How Often Should You Replace Your Plumbing?
Depending on the material and water quality, residential water piping in hard water regions like San Diego may need full replacement every 30-40 years – but signs of wear can begin much sooner.
Recommended Lifespans by Material:
- Galvanized Steel – 20 to 50 years (less with hard water)
- Copper – 50+ years (subject to pitting in hard water)
- PEX/PVC – 40-70 years (better durability in hard water conditions)
Regular inspections every 5-10 years can catch early signs of leaks or corrosion, and proactive replacement or upgrades can save thousands in damage
