Comment on Brazing Copper Plumbing Pipe?

I would wonder about leaching. Modern lead-free plumbing solder is safe for drinking water, but is silphos considered safe for drinking water?

I’ve found a few references claiming that Sil-Fos brazing rods contain only silver, copper, and phosphorous. They should be fine.

Yep. Thas is all that’s in silphos. For any work that isn’t copper to copper then I would need to use silver brazing wire which is just copper, zinc, tin, and silver.
