So, Jerry is there a specific amount of copper that makes that OK. Thanks.
Well ...
When I was in South Florida, we defined that as being 'if there is over 5 feet of metal piping' or 'there are more than one branches for that distance' ...
The reason for the '5 feet' was because that would eliminate a single riser from a tub control to a shower head (certainly *not* 'a system'), or, 'more than one branch for that distance' (i.e., for that greater than five feet) because more than one branch is 'a system'.
That's what, and why, we used what we used.
