Is it safe to use copper and galvanized pipes on the same fitting?

No. Compression fittings are NOT for steam pipes

Since most water is carried to houses through copper pipes, yeah.

Copper pipes are perfectly safe. If you were to consume too much copper you could then suffer from copper toxicity, however metallic copper is not very soluble in water, and you will not get any excessive amount being dissolved by using copper pipes. Also note that in very small amounts, copper is actually beneficial, since it is a necessary trace element. So copper pipes are good. Or what I was told is that the Romans…

because the pipes don't rust as easy, and silver and gold are too expensive. That is another persons answer. Here are the main 3 reasons plumbers use copper pipes. Copper pipes are relatively non-toxic-unlike lead. Copper pipes do not suffer corrosion-as iron does. Copper pipes are relatively soft and easy to work with-unlike both iron and lead. However more and more homes are now using the plastic pipe such as Pvc and Cpvc which seems…

Definitely not! Galvanized when heated will emit toxic fumes.

50psi is a safe route. No problems there. the fittings can largely effect the pressure effect noticed once the water leaves the pipes.

Copper (as a metal or alloys) is safe.

It is safe, but it will rot out. It is used to prevent electrolysis, but that is pretty much it nowadays. Pex is more commonly used for water pipes.

depending on what area of the country you are in...16" should be safe enough. you should be careful of rock coming in contact with the piping as it could result in abrasive punctures over time.

Copper tiles are definitely safe to use on the floor. Copper tiles will not hurt the foundation of the house, nor will it hurt people when they step on the tiles.

It is safe to cook in copper cookware. However it is not advised to cook baby food it copper cookware because it harms the effects of certain vitamins. In addition very acidic foods should not be cooked in copper cookware as they may contain toxic amounts of copper.

Any metal container such as the galvanized one mentioned above, affects the PH and acidic values of the food often discoloring it. Plastic, wood and ceramic containers are safe and do not change or affect the PH of food(s).

Because of following reasons Copper is economical. Copper is lightweight Copper is formable Copper is easy to join Copper is safe Copper is dependable Copper is long-lasting Copper is 100% recyclable

Purified water is water that has been filtered to remove all impurities to make it safe for consumption. Deionized water uses a chemical process to remove all free ions, such as iron or copper ions from the water pipes.

Totally-it's not radioactive or anything. Old pennies are copper so is modern plumbing. if it wasn't safe, we'd all be in trouble.

I cook Whole hogs that requires the use of baling wire, and i will never use galvanized baling wire near food. Never. As i was told at a young age, It is toxic at any stage...and leave it at that. Better to be safe than sorry.

Yes. stainless steel screws are safe with any metal.

basically yeh

it is safe. but only if it is cleaned and purified.

Hot copper wire gives off no fumes. However if you are talking about insulated copper wire, the insulation will give off fumes. Depending on the type of insulation it can be anywhere from totally safe to deadly!

No. All forms of tobacco can cause cancer, emphysema and heart disease.

Yes, it's safer then snaking or any chemicals.

At least one degree above freezing?

yes. the amount of copper leeched should not be toxic

Yeah man they are safe they contain zinc and copper ennit.

The question suffers from a lack of specifics. Do you need to be careful when using copper in what capacity? Handling copper at STP is typically safe.

yes very safe. add. Fuse wire is usually made of tin-plated copper. The fuse wire may well get warm in service, and a bare copper wire will gradually oxidize and will fail sooner as a consequence.

as long as you don't spray in the air pipes

definitly not, its even worst then smoking from aluminum

Only if they're NOT made of anything that will be dissolved by the acid, such as ABS plastic.

Yes, as long as you don't touch the copper on the battery, which has to interface with the copper on the inside of the phone. Just handle it by its sides --- and keep away from the copper.

When copper sulfate is applied at the PROPER rates and proportionsthe water is supposed to be safe immediately for swimming. However, it does have an unpleasant smell, so waiting for at least 12 hours is advisable.

Copper bottom pots are not safe to use on ceramic cook tops. They can sometimes leave a metal residue on the cook top, and that residue is very hard to remove.

Yes. Copper is a very good conductor. But a penny is not a safe device to include in an electrical circuit.

I'm not sure, I believe so though.

For me it was but there is some complications associated with it...

Copper oxide CuO and Sulphuric acid H2SO4 .This answer does not mean that it is a safe thing to do.

Check your local codes as some areas wont allow copper and require schedule 40 piping and fittings

copper is cheaper than gold or silver, works good enough, and is easy to mask and etch with reasonably safe chemicals.

i have no F@%king idea, maybe if its strong enough like around 10M

Because lead is hugely toxic, and can leach into the water, thereby poisoning whoever drinks it.

According to this very interesting website, it is safe to use. vttp://www.mygrannysatticantiques.com/html/copper_molds.html "Unlined copper molds ARE safe to use. The food product is not kept in it for a long enough period of time to cause any problems. And what problems could occur? COPPER IS GOOD FOR YOU IN SMALL QUANTITIES, see the above paragraphs. Unlined copper pots are used in some of the best French kitchens and unlined copper is perfect for heating chocolate."…

copper losses Comment: Advantages: Their operation is silent They have a high efficiency They are relatively safe Disadvantages Expensive Copper losses and hysteress losses

Yes, copper is not toxic. If you are for some reason sensitive to copper due to an allergy or disease however, this would probably be a bad idea. If you are concerned about consuming too much copper, avoid cooking acidic things in the pot, they will leech more of the copper. But you should be fine anyway.

welded or threader? What temperature is the medium going to be? there is temperature pressure relationship . The greater the temperature the less safe pressure can be used

A new refrigerator should ideally stand over night, to allow bubbles in the pipes to disperse.

Pipes are not only very useful plumbing tools, but they are also magical warp points.

Smoking of any type can cause lung irritation, asthma, and lung cancer.

no it will form acid and with its intake can cause vomiting,fever.weakness.,,,,,,,

Old copper bottomed cooking utensils are safe to use as long as the insides are clean. Nothing new there. Copper is a superb conductor of heat, and these older pieces are fine items. Even better if they have been cared for. There are tips for care and maintenance in a number of places on the web. Bon appétit!
