Random q for the chat - had a home inspection today and the pipes in the house are polyB

Ok, no huge deal, I've paid to re-pipe a house before that needed it (old CPVC) HOWEVER this house has a kitchen island/counter thing where the sink and dishwasher are that could only be fed from a supply that runs through the foundation.

I am trying to find out what types of in-ground/foundation plumbing was used in the 90s that may be likely used in this case as well - any ideas or references?

Probably going to vary based on the state, if it was Texas for ex. It would be copper as I don't think anything else could be put under a slab. (Had to be brazed, certain compression fittings were only added to code a couple years ago iirc)

Thanks!! It turned out not to be a huge deal, seller paying to re-pipe and we won’t have to worry about it at all.

It's nice to not have to wear earplugs, the electric leaf blower is the loudest but for only a minute not a huge concern exposure-wise.
