Housing of this vintage generally means copper as standard and the last of the polybutylene, which stopped being installed in 1995. Pressure complaints in houses this age are more often about the pressure-reducing valve drifting out of adjustment than about the pipe. More on 1990s supply pipe.
59% of occupied homes in Cairo are owner-occupied, 16 points below the GA figure of 75%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.
