Sorry if this has been answered before as I seeem to remember a similar
thread, but I've lost it! I need to install approx 12" of copper pipe in a
chase in a plastered breezeblock wall, but remember someone mentioning that
you shouldn't plaster over copper pipe. Isd this OK, or would chrome pipe
be better?
Personally I'd never bury copper pipe in a solid wall unless really,
absolutely necessary - can't you box it in some way?
Just paint the pipe in underseal or wrap it in duct tape to keep the
plaster off it.
I thought it was just mortar (ie cement), rather than plaster, which
attacked copper - am I wrong on that?
