Frequently Asked Questions
What are copper pipes used for?
Copper pipes are used for plumbing, HVAC systems, refrigeration, heat exchangers, medical gas lines, and industrial fluid transportation.
What is the difference between copper pipe and copper tube?
Copper pipes are typically sized by nominal pipe size (NPS), while copper tubes are measured by their actual outside diameter and are commonly used in HVAC and refrigeration systems.
What are the three types of copper pipes (Type K, L, and M)?
Type K has the thickest wall for underground and high-pressure applications, Type L is used for most plumbing systems, and Type M has the thinnest wall for low-pressure residential applications.
Which type of copper pipe is best for plumbing?
Type L copper pipe is the most commonly used choice for residential and commercial plumbing because it offers a good balance of strength and durability.
How long do copper pipes last?
Copper pipes typically last 50 to 70 years or more when properly installed and maintained.
Can copper pipes rust or corrode?
Copper pipes do not rust, but they can corrode over time if exposed to highly acidic water, aggressive chemicals, or poor water quality.
