Not all copper is created equal. I just re-piped a house today where unfortunately for the home owner, the house had been completely plumbed in all thin wall copper. The house was built many years ago and all the water piping was incorrectly installed with the wrong material. There are different thicknesses of copper, eg. Type M, Type L, etc..each one has its purpose, but not all types are okay to use for certain situations. Luckily, Frenchys Plumbing was able to remove the incorrect materials and re-pipe using A-PEX. And in case you were wondering, not all PEX is created equal either...;-)
