Copper pipes through stud wall, insulation question

FresnoBob · 24 May 2012

Hi folks, need to run some copper pipes through a section of stud wall, which has this insulation (for sound deadening I believe):-

Is there any reason why the copper pipes and insulation cant live happily together, or should the pipes be shielded from the insulation in any way? (could it cause some sort of reaction in the copper?).

Alternatively am I just over thinking it and worrying about nowt like a numpty? lol

They should be sleeved in any case.
