Where can I buy copper pipe?
Have tried everywhere in the Girne area-to no avail,including all the recognized plumbing factors (I think!)_ what I need it for is to fabricate an exhaust system for a generator I have installed in my garage,so that I can get the fumes outside.
Any sort of flexible metal pipe would do the trick I suppose but so far drawn a blank.

Philoz.
I tried to do the same for my boat but ended up having a piece of ss pipe fitted that was made for the job.
I tried to find flexi ss pipe in the North and the South, no chance.
I would have a pipe made from any sort of materiel, remember when the exhaust cools it will send water back to the baffle which in time will rot.
These are the problems I have had on the boat, I am using a Chinese 3.5 kva which if looked after works well, drain the condensation from the exhaust when you switch off the genni.

Re: Where can I buy copper pipe?
The reason you cannot find any is cos it is so expensive it gets pinched. So suggest you have around a building site when nobody around and........!

Re: Where can I buy copper pipe?
On the Karaoğlanoğlu industrial estate (that's the area roughly behind Jashan's) there is a metal worker who has various diameters of galvanised steel pipe.
I can'rt now quite remember which road he's on, but just drive round, it's not a big area
If you do a drawing with measurements and take it along to him, I'm sure that he'll fabricate it for you.
He lives Lapta / Karsiyaka way, so if it's on his way home, he might pop in to suss it out...

The only place that I have seen it , is on the other side along with flexible stainless steel piping @ http://www.leroymerlin.com/en right on the roundabout, where you turn left for Ikea.

Re: Where can I buy copper pipe?
Thank you all-I may take a trip over to the Kajagoogoo industrial park as I think It is worth exploring.
Weird that copper is so unobtainable here, yet plentiful in the UK-Thanks to the Illegal Eastern European immigrants that strip it off church roofs and war monuments honouring our dead-thank fully none of that here!
