If there is one thing I love about this industry, it is the opportunities for continuous learning! Over the weekend I took my Buyer clients to numerous townhomes and condominiums with a common theme: Bright orange and bright blue plumbing. These plumbing tubes were found near the hot water tank and some were visible beneath kitchen sinks or bathroom.... But what were they! After some research, I can tell you we were looking at Kitec Plumbing. Although this type of plumbing was installed in Toronto homes and condos between 1995-2007, up until recently (and even now), it is/has not always been disclosed! Industry professionals believe that homes and condominiums with Kitec plumbing and fittings will experience premature pipe failure, and failure rates will increase over time. The pipes may not just leak but burst, with potential for flooding! When touring properties, keep an eye out for this particular brand of plumbing! Most Kitec plumbing can be identified by its bright orange (hot water) and bright blue (cold water) pipes, which were the most common colours; but, it was also sold in red, blue, gray and black. The pipe is typically marked with one of about 10 different brand names including Kitec and PlumbBetter. Visible fittings are stamped with Kitec or KTC. Though this is not an immediate deal breaker, it is a good idea to understand all the pros, cons, and potential costs of a property before committing to putting in an offer!
