What 1993 tells you about the pipe in Denton
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.
52% of occupied homes in Denton are owner-occupied, 24 points below the TX figure of 76%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.
Median household income across Denton ZIP codes is $78,858, 16% below the TX median of $93,661.
Before calling anyone in Denton, check whether every tap is weak or just one. Normal supply is 45–80 psi and under 40 psi is low — how to test it in a minute. Whole house is a supply problem worth a call; one tap is usually a five-minute job you can do yourself.
