We have the opposite problem, our water is a bit basic, I've been replacing all of our type m with the thicker stuff, type f? I figure if the original thin stuff went 40 years this should do pretty well. Our house is small, there isn't that much plumbing. I did half last summer, I'll do the rest this year.

My well water is slightly acid, not enough to be unhealthy but enough to eat copper pipes (especially thin wall - type M).
