Why use dielectric fittings?

Dielectric fittings are used to prevent galvanic corrosion that can occur when dissimilar metals are connected in Plumbing systems, particularly in water supply lines. By electrically isolating these metals, dielectric fittings help maintain the integrity and longevity of the piping system. They also ensure compliance with plumbing codes and standards, promoting safe and efficient water flow. Additionally, they can help maintain water quality by preventing metal leaching into the water supply.
