How Your Piping Works
Most homes are connected to the city water main. Your water supply piping connects the water main to the water meter and shut-off valve for your home. Then, it splits off to deliver water to fixtures and appliances throughout your home.
Cold water pipes lead straight to fixtures and appliances or your water heater. From there, hot water pipes send hot water to many of the same fixtures and appliances. Sinks, washing machines, dishwashers, and showers all have hot- and cold-water supply pipes.
Conversely, when water exits your home, it travels from fixture drains to main drains and then the main sewer line, so your wastewater goes back to the city sewer system.

Water Supply Piping Materials
Water service pipes come in a range of different materials. Older materials may be more susceptible to corrosion, while modern piping is more durable.
Your home likely has multiple materials for different purposes, such as potable and non-potable water or hot and cold water.
Common piping materials include:
- Galvanized steel: Previously one of the most common water supply piping materials, these steel pipes are coated in zinc to defend from corrosion. Homes built before the 1960s may still have this outdated piping material.
- Copper: Copper is renowned for its durability and corrosion resistance, as well as being good for both hot- and cold-water usage. However, if used underground, it requires a protective sleeve as it is susceptible to highly alkaline soil.
- PVC: This material is great for non-potable water supply piping and drainage pipes. PVC pipes are typically white but will be marked by color for their specific purpose.
- CPVC: This plastic piping is an excellent modern material that is durable in higher water temperatures and pressure.
- PEX: Although it can deteriorate when exposed to sunlight, PEX is a flexible and affordable plastic piping that’s great for both hot- and cold-water lines.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to repipe my house?
Whole-house repiping is a good idea if you have outdated or deteriorated piping materials. Otherwise, a professional plumber can replace sections of damaged piping.
What is potable water?
Potable water is drinkable and safe for preparing food since it’s treated and free from harmful chemicals or bacteria.
All city water that comes from your water main is potable. Sewer water is considered non-potable water.
How long do water supply pipes last?
Here are the life spans of the most common types of water supply piping:
- Copper pipes: 50 to 70 years
- PEX pipes: 30 to 50 years
- PVC pipes: 100 years
- Cast-iron pipes: 75 to 100 years
- Galvanized steel pipes: 40 to 50 years
- Polybutylene pipes: 10 to 15 years
