Derek says, “Is there anything that I can use to clean the rust out of a galvanized pipe, or should I just replace my hot water pipes with PCVP?”
Podcast: Play in new window
Tom:
It should be PVCP, but-
Charlie:
….it’s what he wrote here, PCVP.
Tom:
No, I know, but keep looking at all that stuff, polyvinyl chloride.
Charlie:
I don’t know, I thought maybe there’s some kind of new fangled pipe that I hadn’t heard of. Okay.
Tom:
Texas Drain Technology, you’re not going to, you can clean it out. They sandblast it and then they line it with a, I’m going to call it a plastic type material, it’s really an epoxy, and that’s the best way to go. There’s no reason to re-pipe your home, I think that would be a waste. I would call Texas Drain Technologies.
