Brookside's homes are at a critical period for their plumbing systems. Most of those residences were built between 50 and 60 years ago, during the sixties and seventies. Even many of the newer buildings in Brookside were only built as recently as the eighties. Those older homes are reaching the maximum lifespan of some of their essential systems.
There are many different types of household plumbing fixtures and pipes, but few of the older models have lifespans that exceed 50 years. Galvanized steel water lines — which were common during the fifties and sixties, only last from 20 to 50 years at most. Cast iron drains, which were also a popular material choice during Brookside's early days, generally only lasts for an extra 25 years — assuming corrosion doesn't erode the pipes even sooner. The lifespans of most fixtures are typically much shorter.
