Is China Angry at Australia & RIO-TINTO for not giving them a good deal on iron-ore?
I wonder who told her that. Copper plumbing is excellent. My home was build in 1988 using the same copper plumbing. It has been trouble free. Copper is now a very expensive commodity and the local police reports show that burgulars are stealing it out of homes that are under construction and 'selling' it at recycling centers for the money. Tell your friend to relax and enjoy her home.
WHAT?? People actually pay extra to get copper plumbing now. Maybe the neighbor just wants the plumbing to get scrap medal. Issues should be with the fittings from that time are Polybutylene Plumbing Pipe. Those fittings should have been replaced as a result from the class action law suit.
Corporations are evil and supress the people. China is just protecting there own.
You've got some good answers here, the only problem place is where the two dissimilar materials are connected and that is probably accessible and can be corrected. Are you sure the neighbor is not a plumber or maybe a sales person for plumbing supplies.
