How to Solder Copper Plumbing Pipes

By Mark J. Donovan

In Mark Donovan's (of HomeAdditionPlus.com) latest video he goes over the process of how to solder copper plumbing pipes, a.k.a sweating joints.

Soldering copper pipes for small plumbing projects around the home is a fairly straight forward process. All that is required is a propane torch, some lead free solder and flux, and of course some copper pipes and fittings.

Mark's video demonstrates the entire process including: pre-cutting and testing the copper pipes and fittings, preparing the pipes and fittings for solder, soldering the pipes, and finally cleaning them.
