The main reasons for choosing copper plumbing for your home are as follows:
Health and hygiene
Copper water pipe has a strong sterilization ability, biological research shows that the water supply of E. coli and other bacteria in the copper pipeline can not continue to reproduce, more than 99% of the bacteria in the water into the copper pipeline 5 hours after the complete killing, to ensure that the drinking water is clean and hygienic, to avoid secondary contamination, and its trace copper ions can supplement the human body on the demand for copper elements.
Durable
Copper water pipe strength, corrosion resistance, high temperature, high pressure, its melting point of up to 1083 degrees, the temperature of the hot water system has little effect on the copper pipe, the mechanical properties of the hot temperature range to remain unchanged, long service life, can be comparable with the life of the building, or even longer, such as the Peking Union Medical College Hospital in the last century, installed in the 1920s, the copper plumbing parts have been good performance.
Safe and reliable
Copper pipe set of metal and non-metallic pipe advantages in one, harder than plastic pipe, strength and the same wall thickness of steel pipe, but also easier than the general metal bending, good toughness, high ductility, shock resistance, impact resistance and anti-freezing and expansion performance is excellent, can withstand extremely cold and hot temperatures in -196 degrees to 250 degrees applicable range, the use of performance will not be reduced due to the temperature drastic changes in temperature, will not produce the phenomenon of aging.
Convenient installation
Copper pipe is easy to process and connect, can be bent, deformed into elbows and joints, can be bent at any angle, the installation can save materials and total cost, and has good stability and reliability, can save maintenance.
Environmental protection and energy saving
Copper water pipe can be 100% recycled and reused, which is conducive to environmental protection and is a green building material for sustainable development. In addition, its good thermal conductivity, used in hot water pipes can better maintain the water temperature, to a certain extent, energy saving.
Water quality guarantee
Copper pipe is extremely dense, impermeable, grease, bacteria, viruses, oxygen and ultraviolet light and other harmful substances can not pass through it and contaminate the water quality.
