From time to time clients and potential clients ask is copper corrosive to pipework, which we always reply no, it isn’t, based on our 25-year experience with over 200 Orca copper and silver ionisation (CSI) systems installed in the UK, Europe and the Irish Republic.
However, to satisfy our customers further, we teamed up with one of the UK’s most reputable universities, University College London (UCL), to address this question scientifically. This report is based on results from the study carried out in 2017-18 by MSc students from UCL.
