2. The lightning rod does melt some times. When it does not the electrical force is conducted through it via the ground so rapidly that it does not get hot enough to melt. 1. There is the theory and the practice. In theory the billion (10^9) Joules in a lightning bolt would vaporize a lot of water, but since it happens in such a tiny fraction of a second, the water would be converted to a plasma and blast the rest of the water apart - just it does to the wet air, we hear the blast as thunder. Since latent heat of evaporation 2.27 MJ/kg , roughly 1,000 KG of water could be vaporized (boiled) by the energy, which is a tonne (about 2200 pounds) of water if it could all be gotten into the water.
MOST DEFINITELY!! Your old galvanized pipes are clogged. I guarantee it!! All old galvanized pipes become clogged to some extent and will definitely lower your water pressure. PEX pipe is the easiest and fastest way to do this but you CAN use fittings that slide into the pipe and then are crimped on. They also have what we call Sharkbite fittings that just push on. You may think the Sharkbite wouldnt hold pressure because how easy they are to use but they are the best fittings on the market right now and I use them for everything from water leaks to total repipes like you are speaking of. If you are having your house done then you should also have the yard line repiped as this line is probably galvanized also. I'm guessing that your house is anywhere from 40 to 60 years old and its time!! Youre headed in the right direction. The fittings for the PEX are kinda high and the Sharkbites are even more but if you buy the crimp fittings then you have to buy the crimping tool for 1/2 and 3/4 pipe and they are 100 bucks a piece!!! I hope you are having this done by a licensed plumber because a regular ol handyman shouldn't be doing this work and it's illegal for him to do it anyway! Good luck and you will be pleased with the end result!!
