Copper. Copper occurs naturally occurring in soil and can also get into your drinking water from copper pipes. Copper enhances the corrosion of aluminum and zinc. Also, water with high copper content may have a bitter taste.
Therefore corrosion of copper pipes and fittings incur significant costs. Fortunately, problems with copper corrosion are relatively rare and the cause is usually well understood. Problems include coloured (blue) water, pinholes in the pipe or fitting, and failure of copper hot water cylinders. History of copper pipes and products Copper pipes have been used for domestic water services for nearly 200 years. The introduction of copper pipes offered a stronger, lighter and cheaper alternative to lead. The first pipes, used in 1810 (Reference 2), were made from sheet metal.
