Copper industry launches app for plumbers, HVAC techs and contractors

The Copper Development Association (CDA) has converted its Copper Tube Handbook into an app that can be downloaded directly onto an iPad or iPhone and carried onto the jobsite. By searching for “Copper Tube Handbook” in the Apple App store, users now have this 60 plus page manual available on their mobile device. The app is a valuable resource for anyone working with copper tube and piping systems, or seeking access to technical specifications, data or installation instructions. Also available through the app are several short, educational how-to videos from the “Do it Proper with Copper series,” which are produced by CDA and demonstrate the various copper joining techniques, as well as help distinguish the different sizings and designations for copper tube, pipe and fittings. The app is free to download for the first 10,000 North American customers.
