I'm sure you're trying to be funny, but minerals are the enemy of pipes. The only people that say you want minerals in your home drinking water are plumbers and pipe salesmen. Things like calcium and lime cling to any tiny imperfection in the pipe (even copper and plastic) and start building up over time. It's not long before it's clogging up your pipes, your water heater, your home boiler, your dish washer, washing machines, baseboard heaters, anything that has running water going through it.

@bobwatters filters really only make water LOOK good. They don't eliminate dissolved solids. I have always had iron rich water, and to small of a filter gets plugged up very fast. It's always been cheaper and easier to change out cheap cotton filters and clean faucet screens often. A water system would eliminate that issue but they are to expensive.

hard water and water with rust in it are two very diffrent things. i had a 1000L fishtank and used steel tube for a piece of my filter(bad idea i know) within a month it killed all of my fish, only when i was selling it did i notice the rusted pipe. so i did a ph test on the water with rust, it was off the chart. not to mention the dissolved metals making their way thru. this water pipe is safe for no man or fish to drink from.
@bigmike-
@bigmike- 4 года назад
The wear patterns on the inside of the pipe are due to the way the material for the pipe was produced; there's a non-uniform distribution of elements of things like nickel and carbon throughout the body of the pipe, therefor different sections will have (slightly) different levels of resistance to both the minerals in the water itself (including, obviously, the water) as well as the friction from those elements (and the water itself). Tldr: Chemistry is why.
@laser8389
@laser8389 4 года назад
Also, there's rust, which isn't the same as the hardness deposits. Rust is oxidized iron (similar byproducts come from oxidization of other metals, same idea applies), so the rust you blasted away was once part of that pipe.

@edstirling
@edstirling 4 года назад
galvanized steel is coated with zinc. when the coating wears away at some point, the coating surrounding that point continues to prevent rust by sacrificing nearby zinc to the rust god Galvanos. the bare patch starts to grow in a little circle as it prefers to sacrifice zinc that is closest first. the iron starts to form rust when the bare patch is a few mm or so in diameter. that's why the pitting makes little circles. the size of the circles depends on which rust spots are oldest. when circles overlap, the corrosion will start to flake off chunks and become more irregular. the distribution of alloying elements in the steel is way more uniform than the coating and you would need magnification to see that.

Some cities used a lot of asbestos cement and cast iron pipelines lots of which are still in use today, the inside of them is actually pretty clean once you saw them in half(the inside of cast iron looks dark but sample tests show that the amount of iron or rust in them isn't harmful. You don't really want to mess with them too much because they tend to leak quite fast so most water companies just leave them be as they are harmless most of the time which is why lots of them haven't been replaced by newer materials. Most newer built neighborhoods make use of either PVC or epoxy coated iron pipes with the latter being used for large streets or areas with high consumption etc. The real nasty pipelines are the lead ones, there's a chance of getting lead poisoning from them which can be especially damaging for children. It's pretty rare to find them in my country of the Netherlands as they were sanitized over the years. I suggest google searching some of the pipelines i mentioned to have a clear idea of what they look like. ps: I know it might not be the same case in your country/region or whatever but most countries hold drinking water to a high standard as to prevent people from getting sick.

Minute Earth did a video about lead pipes, and how these mineral deposits from hard water will build up on the sides of the pipes and vastly reduce the amount of lead leeching into the water supply. Despite their gross look, they protect you from lead pipes, which are still common, and a lot of recent water poisoning events (including Flint) are from this mineral layer dissolving. While those pipes weren't lead, perhaps upstream/up-pipe it is lead, and the fact those mineral deposits are forming might be *why* it is safe to drink.

Well, that why we only use PVC pipes in Europe. From where im from (Central Portugal) is actually pretty normal for us to drink directly from the pipe without filtering, in fact the water actually taste better than bottled water. In my entire life, i never actually saw my mother buying a liter of water on the supermarket for home consumption.

If you guys saw the things I've seen, you'd never want to drink straight tap water again. The big water lines under ground get the exact same buildup pattern/ lumps but they're just bigger. I never really asked why it forms like that. I mostly do water and air pipeline work at ski resorts for snowmaking but I've done domestic water lines too and after what I've cut apart and ripped out of the ground definitely made me think twice. We don't even bother trying to cut that steel with a torch, we just crank up the welder and cut it with welding rod lol

I'm pretty sure the pitting is caused by spots where the galvanisation deteriorated first, og got scraped by something perhaps, and that's where the rust started forming, and just keeps infecting the material in a crater like structure, just like pitting on normal metal that's heavily rusted

Actually the “gross stuff” on those pipes protects the water passing though from pulling dangerous shit from the pipe, primarily lead particles from lead pipes. The reason Flint’s water had a lot of lead was because that film, which developed over multiple years, was damaged due to lack of adding certain chemicals to the water when the water source was switched. Watch “Poisoned Water” on PBS, explains it better than my comment.

Here’s a helpful way to remember the difference between stalagmites and stalactites. If you imagine mites, mites crawl on the ground so stalagmites come from the ground. As for stalactites, the cracks in which the water drips through is very tight.

5:29 29$ for a little sheet of copper cut into shape, are you kidding me?! Helping people my ass, abusing the situation to earn money fits better. (1$ = 0,92€) You can buy a whole kg of copper in sheetform (27€, I checked the prices) for that price and make 25~50 pieces in cuts. (I have an object, which is out of copper in similar shape and size) That would mean that you try to get out of 0,5€ ~ 1€ per piece for copperprice, 28€ simply for the cut. Thats 28/1 ratio. Now imagine if 1000 pieces get sold: 1000€ for the copper, 28.000€ for the cuts. I could buy a brandnew cnc-machine, if I sell 1000 pieces xD So if 1000 people want the same thing for half the price (and a different design of course), comment me here and Ill get you those xD And earn from the 15€ atleast 7€, while another company does the cut for me. Some people are simply horrible abusers.

The pits left behind might be somewhat of the same effect that causes what is called witch cauldrons in my country; holes or depression on cliffs and rocks caused by the water spinning just so on that spot over a long period of time due to the geography.Some irregularity like the mineral buildup disturb the water flow and cause a circular turbulence that effectively grinds on the pipe.
@SebastianSkadisson

To be honest, this looks exactly like the mineral water wells in Germany look like. Of course there the minerals are way bigger and look like what actual spa decoration would look like. But still, same colors and textures. Apparently those mineral wells bring you the cleanest and healthiest water you can get. BUT - those minerals are also the reason for when you dont have your water running for a while, you get orange water first, because the minerals dried and became "mineral dust". The orange water you shouldn't drink, because it can contain too much iron. But as long as the water runs through minerals and stays transparent its perfectly fine.

The water is perfectly safe to drink even though there is rust and mineral deposits on the inside of the pipe. The only problem is, that there more deposits on the inside the lower the dynamic pressure will be and the less water will come out the tap.
@geometricart7851

As water goes through the pipe vortices are formed due to the aeration of the water. This causes areas where minerals are more likely to be attracted. When you used the waterjet it popped off these mineral nodules to leave behind the cratered golf ball like surface.
