Default Can soldering destroy pipe dope and teflon tapes?

On 2/2/2009 7:53 PM MiamiCuse spake thus:

I have used a brass male adaptor with one threaded end and one socket end.
I used pipe dope and teflon tape to thread into each port, then I plan to
solder the other end to copper pipes.


One question, a little off your topic: why use both teflon tape and pipe
dope? Seems like teflon alone ought to be good enough.

Personally, I like Vista, but I probably won't use it. I like it
because it generates considerable business for me in consulting and
upgrades. As long as there is hardware and software out there that
doesn't work, I stay in business. Incidentally, my company motto is
"If this stuff worked, you wouldn't need me".
