I just read the internet article today from Diann Hursh about pinhole leaks in copper pipes.  A few days before Christmas, 2001 my wife and I experienced a major pinhole leak in our 7 year old home.  We ended up with ruined carpet. flooring, etc.  Our insurance company paid for most of the damaged items but we ended up paying out over $3,500 to have our home re-piped with a plastic type pipe.  We have about 100 homes in our subdivision and about 1/2 of these homes have had problems with pinhole leaks.  We have since moved from our home and we still have only guesses about what is causing the problem.  If I hear any new info on the subject I will pass it your way.  Please keep me posted if you have any breaking news.

Thank You,
