Hey-
So, I want to install some piping to carry compressed air to three different outlets in my basement shop. The compressor will be somewhat remote in order to minimize noise so I'll need to run some piping to the shop area. Should I use simple black iron pipe for this? I know that there will be an issue with moisture and I plan on installing some drains outfitted with ball valves at the bottoms of the vertical drops. Someone mentioned galvanized pipe but I thought that with that type of material, the galvanizing is only applied to the exterior which would be meaningless.
Any ideas?
Tx,
