Flood water versus plumbing water

Water from a river or creek is treated as flood water by insurers, while water from a broken pipe is a plumbing loss. The NC Department of Insurance says homeowners policies do not cover flood damage and that a separate policy has a 30-day waiting period before it begins. The difference matters for any claim.
