The pipe leaked through the wall and caused additional damage. Is that covered?
In order to be compensated for additional damage, you must indicate the additional damage on the claim form and submit property specific receipts, invoices, and photographs. What if I had prior litigation with some of the companies involved? If you or the predecessor owner of your property have engaged in prior litigation which involved ABS pipe at that property that resulted in a settlement, judgement, or dismissal with prejudice, you are not entitled to any additional recovery against a party with whom your claim was previously settled, adjudicated, or dismissed with prejudice. Similarly, if you have been paid by an insurance carrier or other third party for repair or damages associated with ABS pipe by one or more of the defendant manufacturers, you may not receive duplicative payments from any of the class settlements.
