Copper pipe can be oxidized and corrode over time for a number of causes. This could lead to a buildup inside the piping. Though rust itself isn’t harmful however, it could cause unpleasant taste in the water. This can also be dangerous for pipes that are polluted by lead. If that were the case it is recommended to replace your piping right away. But, what do you do for simple corrosion of copper pipes?
