Why a copper water pipe and what does type K mean?

For water mains, we install Type K copper pipes due to their many advantages. Copper has long been recognized as a reliable material for drinking water supply, and Type K is the most robust version thanks to its greater wall thickness.

This choice results in an underground pipe that is more resistant to water pressure, ground movement, and external loads. Type K copper also offers excellent protection against corrosion and chemicals, helping to preserve the quality of drinking water for decades.
