I haven't ever heard of a pipe blowing out of a wall and having the pressure of a fire hose. I haven't heard of a refrigerator blowing up either until one did here in The Villages. It is hard sometimes to know what to believe.

Retiring. You are welcome to visit us and see our home. We think this one and the Camellia we had in Hadley were built just fine. We are not new to home building. All of our homes were new except two. We have lived in ten homes and two were not new. We were part of helping our daughter and son in law build two homes as a nibby parent/consultant.
You never had main water line in the house break then, water line pressure usually 60 plus psi which is the same at the fire hydrant except the fire hydrant has more volume so to the size of the pipe connection 3 inches or more vs 1/2 inch in the wall.
