Guys, Been reading these pages and you've got me concerned. A couple of months back I embedded some 10mm copper pipes in a wall for my new radiators. I used aluminium kitchen foil to cover the pipes before filling the voids with interior filler. I am am now about to tile over this for one rad, and fit kitchen cupboards over another filled area. I have seen some people mention that copper + aluminium = corrosion. What corrodes? The aluminium or the copper? I covered the copper pipes for about two feet in this fashion. Should I remove this aluminium foil? Would what I have done cause problems down the line?
