Polybutylene Plumber

Polybutylene Plumber

Polybutylene piping in Atlanta became popular when developed by a large oil company into a material used for transporting potable water, as well as other liquids. This product was inexpensive to produce. It could be made in large quantity and it was readily available. In fact, it is still being used today for many applications in the residential, commercial, and industrial world. It found its fault, however, in its use as residential water piping.

Countless theories exist as to why the product failed with endless amounts of recalls and insurance claims. The most commontheory is that during the formulation process for the piping, a chemical was left out of the plastic mixture, therefore, weakening it against extended exposure to chlorine. Although it may be hard to taste, there is a quite significant amount of harmless chlorine in drinking water. This procedure is done to keep the water free from harmful contaminants or chemicals. It also removes most of the impurities, and is present in all drinking water.

After many years, however, polybutylene began to lose its tolerance for the chemical and began degrading, which eventually led to breaking. Outside, it broke underground (blue), and broke inside in the walls, under cabinets, under the slab (gray), usually at the connections or joints. The developing company was forced to pay for hundreds of thousands of homes to be completely re-piped, losing billions in a class-action lawsuit. We, as one of Atlanta’s premier plumbers specializing in the re-piping of homes, have performed thousands of these repairs ourselves.

Although the lawsuit is officially over, many homes still contain the poly piping, and are just now beginning to experience problems.
