Questions from Wade Hampton homeowners
Why is my hot water rusty in my Wade Hampton home?
If only the hot is rusty, the water heater may be failing. If both are, galvanized pipes are the likely cause.
Is it worth replacing old shower valves in Wade Hampton ranches?
If parts are no longer available or temperature swings, a new pressure-balancing valve is worth it.
