I bought a 1910 craftsman about a year and a half ago. I had all galvanized supply replaced with pex or copper. Most of the fixtures are still in place though - some of them likely dating back to the 50s or maybe earlier. For reference, one toilet has a manufacture date of 1924. So, some of the valves are certainly old.

Anyhow, I’m now asking a plumber to tackle a few additional things. He is well reviewed and comes recommended from several people in the neighborhood. He said that if the city water pressure is over 80psi I should get a pressure regulator to help protect fixtures and appliances. The measured pressure was 82. I’m guessing that pressure fluctuates a bit. That’s a borderline number, to me. Thoughts? Opinions? Should I get this work done? It’s not a crazy amount of money but it’s also not nothing.

Anybody else not getting notifications on offers? Just realized I missed three offers in the last 30ish days. I got no emails, messages, or alerts. wtf
