  lethal for the condition of those facilities,
  which is why wear and tear will show.

  particularly in systems that use outdated metals
  that wouldnt be used in todays
  climate. Underground movement can be a regular
  source of damage too. This can be caused by
  natural factors or problems with building
  foundations. The growth of tree roots can also
  pose a major threat to the condition of those
  pipes.

  compromised piping structures. Cracks can fall
  into several categories including lateral, longitu
  dinal, and pipe fractures. Given that each
  situation is unique, the list of sources is
  nearly endless.
