I have polybutylene piping (with copper insert fittings) in my home. There are currently no issues with the plumbing but I was wonder what I should do? For example:
1. Should I be pro-active and get the piping replaced with copper piping eventhough there is no issues? Or
2. Should I be proactive and install shutoff values to various runs of my house so that if a leak occurs, I can shut off that specific run and continue to use the rest of my home. This will option would allow me to not replace the poly pipes until a problem does occurs. OR
3. Something else?
Thanks
