From the water heater to the sewer line.
My house has old galvanized pipe. Does it all have to go?
Not necessarily all at once. Galvanized supply line rusts from the inside, so the bore narrows over decades until flow suffers and the water runs brown after the house has sat empty. Whether it wants full repiping or a partial depends on how much has already been replaced by previous owners, which is usually more than people expect. A look at the exposed runs in the basement tells you a lot for free. Where repiping is the right answer, it is worth doing before a remodel rather than after.
Do you know where your main shutoff is?
It is the single most useful thing to know before you need it, and most people find out during the emergency. In this area it is usually where the line enters the basement or crawl space, often near the front of the house and close to the meter. Find it now, turn it to confirm it actually moves, and turn it back. A valve that has not been operated in twenty years can seize, and discovering that with water coming through a ceiling is a much worse time to learn it than a Saturday afternoon.
Which pipes actually freeze, and what stops it?
The ones on exterior walls, in crawl spaces, in unheated garages, and the hose bibs outside. A pipe rarely bursts where it froze; the ice blocks the line and the pressure builds between that block and a closed tap, so the split happens somewhere else entirely. On a hard freeze, open the cabinet doors under sinks on outside walls and let a pencil-width trickle run from the furthest tap. Disconnect hoses in autumn, because a hose left on a bib is the single most common frozen-pipe call we take.
Why does a plumber care about my outside taps and irrigation?
Because of backflow. If pressure in the main drops, water can be pulled backwards out of a hose left in a pool, a bucket, or an irrigation line, and into the drinking water. That is why hose bibs have vacuum breakers and why irrigation systems need a backflow device, and why some of them are required to be tested. It is not a sales conversation, it is a code one, and it is worth knowing what you have before a home sale puts it on someone's list.
