Make sure you know where main and all fixture shut off valves are. Copper pipes deteriorate and fail after about 25-30 years. It’s a common problem in Florida. Mine failed under the house slab beneath a bathroom and flooded 3 rooms because I didn’t know where the main shut off valve was. $30k in damage.
