When you see green dots on your copper tubing, it is time to make a change. These are self-sealed leaks. The piping is corroded through from the inside. There were several pipes that had been replaced (with PEX, but that is another issue entirely...). These pinhole leaks were on every exposed piece of copper tubing. If it is happening where I can see it, you can bet the farm that it is happening inside the drywall where I cannot see it. It is just a matter of time before this system fails.
