Complete Plumbing Systems With Copper Pipe and Fittings
Create a reliable pipe system with copper plumbing. Copper is a durable material that resists corrosion and heat and can last for 50 years or more. This pipework can supply water to a home or workplace. There are a variety of copper pipe sizes, diameters and components available at Lowe’s to give you the layout that works best for you.
Consider copper pipe compression fittings for an easy way to connect or disconnect pipes when needed. You may see these fittings on dishwasher or washing machine supply lines or on pipe adapters. Copper couplings help ensure pipes stay securely connected. They’re available in slip fittings that work as soldered copper pipe connections or as press-fit couplings that allow quicker connections to the copper tubing but require a specialized crimping tool.
Creating a network of pipes on your own takes the right tools and materials, if you want to do a professional job. It also requires compliance with plumbing codes. Read our Pipe Fitting Buying Guide for information on other pipe materials to consider.
