You can find copper in household wiring, plumbing pipes, pots and pans, electronics, and decorative items such as faucets and light fixtures.
To clean copper pipes with boric acid, create a solution by mixing boric acid powder with water. Apply the solution to the copper pipes and scrub gently using a non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Rinse the pipes thoroughly with water after cleaning to remove any residue.
Copper pipes carrying hot water can corrode faster due to the higher temperature accelerating the chemical reactions involved in corrosion. The heat can increase the rate of oxidation and other reactions that lead to the breakdown of the copper material. Additionally, the hot water can also increase the solubility of minerals in the water, which can further contribute to corrosion.
Copper is a good conductor of electricity. Copper pipes are often used for plumbing because of their ability to easily conduct heat and electricity.
Copper does not react with water under normal conditions. However, if water is acidic or contains certain impurities, copper can slowly react to form copper oxide or copper hydroxide.
Copper pipes will last the longest. anonymous@oola.com
Copper is used as hot water pipes because the copper will not corrode when the hot water goes through the pipes

No, copper is a metallic element.
Bell and Gosset, Dayton, and Armstrong. Disadvantage is turbulance in copper pipes which makes the pipe wall and fittings thinner and WILL eventually leak.
Copper pipes are now most commonly used in plumbing. Lead pipes were used long ago, and the word plumbing is derived from the Latin word for lead (plumbum). Iron pipes were used until relatively inexpensive copper pipes became readily available during the twentieth century.

There is no chemical reaction that will happen if galvanized pipes are connected to copper pipes via a brass intermediary. The reason is that brass does not react to either copper or zinc, the mineral used to galvanize metal pipes.
well a fuel pipes, are the copper pipes that carry fuel from the fuel pump to the engine. That is the simple answer.
