Dissolving shower necks
Had a leaky shower, found it was the shower neck leaking right where it
went into the elbow. As I unscrewed it, it snapped easily at the
threads. Now, this is the SECOND time in about 8 years this has
happened. The plumbing is copper, and the necks are chromed whatever.
My house water is slightly acidic.
Is there a better repair for this, so I don't have to do it again? Is
there a neck made that won't be this prone to corroding through?
Thanks,
Kelly
