I moved to a house that is over a century old and noticed most of
the
upper
floor water lines to be
newer copper but the lower main lines galvanized steel

Won't this lead to rapid deterioration of the lower water lines?

I would also like to know general guidelines for avoiding galvanic
action on
piping and so forth
I need to have a water heater installed andwas told to use fittings

which
use a
mix of different metals in it's construction...
Why is this, and how does this negate galvanic action by merely
being
a
mixed metal fitting?

Thanks
