Plumbing questions, answered for Lithia Springs

Lithia Springs sits in Georgia's humid subtropical region — a humid subtropical climate — long, hot, muggy summers, mild winters, heavy thunderstorms, and high year-round humidity. That's hard on a home's plumbing: high year-round humidity that sweats and corrodes copper pipe and summer heat and moisture that strain water heaters all accelerate wear on pipes, fittings, and water heaters, so the failures we see most here are clogged floor and yard drains after storms and storm-driven flooding that overwhelms sump pumps. We spec pipe, fittings, and fixtures for local conditions, not a generic catalog spec.

Most Lithia Springs homes were built around 1988, and 34% predate 1980 — so a lot of them still run their original supply pipe and water heaters, well past service life. We check pipe condition, water-heater age, and shut-off valves on every visit.
