Copper is used all over the place for gas lines, water lines, or other ways to have gases or liquids move around. Most homes have copper pipes that run water to all of their toilets, sinks, washing machines, and more. Copper lines are used inside of hospitals primarily and often will have solder on the copper joints to hold them together.

We get the question of, “Where do I find copper pipes?” very often, and the answer is all over.
