Bought a house last year. It had been retrofitted with polybutylene for most of the plumbing. We experienced our first leak in a hot water pipe in the crawl space. We didn't realize what was going on for about a day. The house got up to about 80% humidity and water was condensing on the inside of the windows. Ooops. I patched the leak but then started poking around. Here is where the copper switched over to the PB. I've since ripped it all out and installed a MANABLOC distribution system. It is probably overkill for my smallish house, but it wasn't too bad doing home runs for everything. I'm also redoing a bathroom so being able to turn off the bathroom while still having water available elsewhere is nice.  Here is a bonus shot of some exposed wiring in the attic!
