I own a 1966 2.5 bath home in NE Bellevue Washington. My water service line has started leaking and is in need of replacement. I dug up around the meter and found that on my side of the meter is connects to galvanized pipe for about 12†and then turns to black flex pipe. Not sure how far the black flex pipe goes, but I know it eventually turns back into galvanized before it gets to the house. I am going to replace the entire run from the meter to the house and my question is what should I replace it with? I have read quite a few posts on this site and I have read suggestions on polyethylene, soft copper, and cpvc. I am looking for suggestions on what to use and tips on how to install it. How deep.... is 18" ok? etc....
Thank you!
Thank you!
