It has been used for plumbing and mechanical systems since metals were first employed in these applications. And its popularity in heating systems is a further indication of copper's superiority to substitute materials. When copper alloys are used for all system components there is no problem with compatibility. Copper is long-lasting and maintenance free Copper has stood the test of time to earn customer satisfaction and wide code acceptance. Its long lasting and maintenance free characteristics make copper the leading choice for plumbing, heating, cooling and other mechanical systems.
Copper never require painting for protection from corrosion.
Instead, a thin film forms inside the tube, providing natural protection from corrosion. Copper's trouble-free service means satisfied customers. And its universal acceptability assures compliance with major building codes. Copper is safe, too. It will not burn or support combustion.
