Ignoring a plumbing code can be costly!  American Plumbing, LMP #556

White warning sign on a black bucket in a wall cavity with exposed pipes and insulation debris.

The plumbing code for as long as I can remember states that water lines coming through the slab must be sleeved.  Note that none of these copper water lines were sleeved and due to electrolysis, 2 of these water lines busted.

Call THE REAL American Plumbing that has been here for 35 years and not an out of town company
