COPPER – Most Ancient, Reliable, cost effective…. Plumbing Solution.

Efficacy

     The GI has a relatively rough inner surface; so the pressure drop is fairly high when water passes through it. The right angle joints often used for GI pipes enhance this resistance of water flow. The copper tube ensures the minimal pressure drop-thanks to its smooth inner surface. Additionally the copper tube is bent smoothly towards any direction and the gentle curvature at the bending point offers little or no resistance to water. 

Maintenance-free

Install it and forget it. That’s the hallmark of copper plumbing. And that is why it is tailor-made for concealed installation in modern-day construction. A concealed GI pipe will have to be ‘broken into’ when it gives trouble. Copper will hardly ever call for attention. Besides, the thin-walled copper tubing can be installed in narrow spaces, and being lightweight it is far easier to install. Copper is also immune to the external corrosion caused by concrete. 

Durability

     Copper is indestructible. Neither can the atmosphere oxidize it, nor can water corrode it. And fire cannot burn it. This is amply evident from an excavated piece of Egyptian copper water pipe, dating back to the year 2750 B.C. The artifact has survived the vicissitudes and rigorous of over four and a half thousand years. Any other metal would have perished totally.

Exclusivity

     Compare the aesthetic looks of the copper with the dullness of GI pipes or the gaudiness of plastic, and you can be sure that copper will emerge the winner hands down. Because the looks of copper are the looks of true class. 

Convenience

     Copper is malleable, ductile, and lightweight. Any length of copper tubing can be packed, transported and can be stored in handy coil form. Imagine the sheer weight and dimensions of a corresponding length of GI pipe, and you will know why copper is the element of choice of you! 

Hygie Hygiene

     Copper is anti-fouling. In other words, it is anti-bactericidal and fungicidal. So, in effect copper plumbing is your safeguard against a host of diseases that water carries into the kitchen or washroom.

Free-flow

     The copper tube, unlike the GI pipe, offers a smooth inhospitable surface minimizing sedimentation from water.

     The GI pipe also produces a fluffy corrosion product that is often a major cause of clogging. Copper, on the other hand, is well known for its corrosion resistance and can be depended upon to keep your plumbing line in top ‘free-flow’ condition.

Image-plus

     Whether you are an architect, a builder, or a prospective buyer of real estate, your image is dependent on quality and class. Both these parameters are best met by copper is a sure “plus”. Copper is value-addition to real estate. Copper protects your reputation. It also protects your investment-whether in terms of constructional expertise or sheer money value.

Formability

     Whether pipes and tubes, or general-purpose joints, thimbles, ferrules, bends, couplings, traps and junctions-copper makes fabrication all too easy, because it is highly malleable and ductile. That is why manufacturers of copper plumbing lines and accessories are always geared to meet your every requirement, no matter how stringent or exacting.

Corrosion resistance

     Seldom, if ever, would you need to pour acid down your copper plumbing line. But if ever you do, copper is ready for it. Copper will allow the acid to do its duty on any dirt and filth accumulated inside the pipe. But-as it resists corrosion by all type of natural waters and environments-copper will not allow the acid to react with itself. The GI pipe subjected to the same rigours will corrode in no time.

Value-plus

     The term “value” is perhaps as closely associated with copper as it is with gold. Because not only copper-like teakwood-outlives generations together, but also copper plumbing can be dismantled, redesigned, reshaped, and reinstalled anywhere else. Even if you choose to dispose of your copper plumbing line, you will always find takers aplenty with capital gains galore.

User-friendliness

     The installation of copper plumbing is both economical and labour saving. Take a copper tube; bend it just any way you like, or take a joint, and make it 100% leak-proof through the simplest means of joining, no threading, no filling in leaks with white cement is required. Also, in any case, you don’t need too many joints with copper tubes because copper tubes come in long lengths coiled up for your convenience.
