Corrosion in Water Lines
In most cases of water line corrosion - around 75% to be exact - oxygen is the main culprit. When oxygen mixes with metal pipes, it forms corrosive compounds that can cause severe water damage. This damage can lead to costly repairs and even health hazards.
To prevent this, regular pipe inspections are crucial to identify potential corrosion hotspots. At McMahan Industrial Services, our plumbers detect signs of corrosion, such as rust, pitting, or flaking, during these inspections and take immediate action to prevent further damage.
Soldering for Leak-Free Joints
Inspecting pipes for corrosion is crucial, but ensuring joints are properly soldered is just as vital to prevent leaks and maintain a reliable plumbing system. At McMahan Industrial Services, we know that soldering is a critical process that requires attention to detail to achieve leak-free joints.
There are different types of solder, including lead-free and acid-core solders, each with its own pros and cons. When soldering, we use flux alternatives like paste or liquid flux to remove oxidation and ensure a strong bond between the pipe and fitting.
To get it right, we follow proper soldering techniques, including cleaning and heating the joint, to achieve a reliable connection.
