If you own a mobile home, a double wide or manufactured home in Brown County and you have problems getting a plumber to fix your leaks then you need to call Brian's WOW Plumbing. Most plumbers will not work on mobile home plumbing repairs because for several reasons the main one being the piping itself. If your mobile home was built between 1978 and 1995 then you probably have piping that was made with polybutylene. Polybutylene is a form of plastic resin that was used extensively in the manufacture of water supply piping for mobile homes, double wides and manufactured homes. Polybutylene was manufactured by Shell Chemical Company which was the primary manufacturer of the pipe, along with Qest and Vanguard. The acetal fittings used on the pipes were manufactured by Celanese and DuPont. The polybutylene pipe was installed in 6 to 10 million homes. Polybutylene became extremely popular primarily because of cost. A typical 2,000 square foot residence cost $1,000 to $1,500 less to build with polybutylene than with copper piping. The material was most commonly used in the "Sun Belt", but it is also very common in the Mid Atlantic and Northwest Pacific states.The manufactures claimed that polybutylene pipe would last a lifetime, but as thousands of homeowners have discovered, the lifespan of polybutylene pipe is far shorter. And when it fails, it does so without warning.
The high failure rate of polybutylene pipes is thought to be that oxidants like chlorine react with the pipes and fittings, causing them to scale and flake and become brittle. This can cause tiny micro-fractures, which undermine the basic structural integrity of the system. The polybutylene pipes weaken, and eventually fail without warning. Homeowners who have experienced polybutylene pipe failures have suffered tremendous property damage. The only way to eliminate the problem of deteriorating polybutylene piping is to replace it.

Brian's WOW Plumbing provides plumbing services to mobile home, double wide and manufactured home owners because, according to Brian Collins owner of WOW, it is the right thing to do. Most plumbers refuse to work on polybutylene piping because most of the time it is a confined space that usually dirty and more often than not, once fixed, more leaks develop because of the brittle nature of the pipe. If you are not sure if you have polybutylene piping give Brian's WOW Plumbing a call at 877-487-3969
