I'm replacing all of the iron plumbing in my house with copper. Granted, each soldered joint gets wiped down to prevent corrosion, but what about the inside of the system? I've been applying (lead-free) flux to all the joints, but it's hard to ignore the label on the can that says "POISON". Further, I've noticed that solder (lead-free) has puddled inside some of the joints. Should the new plumbing be flushed with something before being put into use? Thanks!
