Plumbing questions, answered for Sandy Springs

Sandy 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 mildew and corrosion on damp, low fittings and sewer backups after heavy thunderstorms. We spec pipe, fittings, and fixtures for local conditions, not a generic catalog spec.
