Kitec Plumbing Solutions

If your home was built or remodeled in the late 1990s through the 2000s, it may contain Kitec plumbing. Kitec systems are commonly identified by orange and blue tubing and can be prone to premature failure—often showing up as leaks, pinhole issues, pressure changes, or water damage.

At Sacramento Repipe & Plumbing, we inspect Kitec systems, confirm what’s installed, and recommend the most reliable path forward. If replacement is needed, we remove the problematic Kitec components and install proven modern piping materials—so you can stop worrying about surprise leaks.

Kitec Pipe Inspection, Removal, and Replacement

Kitec plumbing can fail without warning, which is why a proper inspection matters. Our team checks visible piping, fittings, and key connection points to help confirm whether your home has Kitec and whether there are early signs of deterioration.

If replacement is recommended, we remove the Kitec piping and fittings and replace them with modern materials selected for long-term performance. The goal is simple: reduce leak risk and restore confidence in your plumbing system.

Signs Your Home May Have Kitec Plumbing

Common signs that may point to Kitec-related issues include:

Recurring leaks or unexplained water damage
Green/white buildup or corrosion around fittings
Low or inconsistent water pressure
Discolored water or metallic odor
Visible blue (cold) and orange (hot) tubing near the water heater or under sinks

If you’re noticing any of these, it’s smart to schedule an inspection before a small issue becomes a major repair.

Our Replacement Process and Techniques

Our process starts with an inspection to confirm where Kitec is installed and how extensive the replacement needs to be. From there, we plan the most efficient route for new lines to minimize disruption while still doing the job correctly.

When replacement is needed, we remove the Kitec piping and fittings and install modern replacement piping (typically PEX or copper) based on your home’s layout, water conditions, and goals. After installation, we pressure-test the system and verify proper flow at fixtures so you can feel confident everything is working as it should.

If your Kitec is part of a larger system issue, we can also discuss whether a whole-home repipe is the best long-term fix.
