In my example, I have seen pipes burst. In much of our area, we have 80-year-old pipes from the late 1940s into the 1950s. They are asbestos pipes that are causing us significant issues. I know cast iron pipes were referenced, but we see specific issues with asbestos. Are there any risks associated with those pipes or are there any specific areas where they need to be replaced?
