Does my home insurance cover Kitec plumbing?

My partner and I finally found our dream house! We got it inspected last week and our inspector informed us it might have Kitec plumbing. Will our homeowners’ insurance cover Kitec plumbing?

Congrats on finding your dream home! Depending on the terms of your home insurance policy, your insurer may cover part or all of the cost to replace Kitec piping to avoid an inevitable claim payout for water damage.
If your homeowner’s insurance does not cover Kitec plumbing you may have to:
  • Replace the plumbing and pay for replacement cost in full in order to keep your coverage.
  • Pay an increased insurance premium if you do not replace the Kitec plumbing yourself.
  • Prepare your home in the likely event your pipes burst and flood your basement.
