Kitec is a type of piping that was previously used in the installation of hot water heating systems. Although many people have no trouble with the piping in their homes, some people have had issues with the piping and fittings leaking. There was a recall on the piping and fittings some time ago and many home insurance companies will not insure a home if Kitec piping is present.
Insurance and Real Estate companies recommend that if you have Kitec piping in your home, you have it replaced with PEX piping. Many homeowners find that they are unable to sell their homes if they have Kitec piping.
