Causes of condensate corrosion.

Effects of condensate corrosion

The effects of condensate corrosion are either leaks or pipe blockage.
Threaded joints are most susceptible to leaks as the metal has been thinned and stressed as a result of thread cutting.
Horizontal pipes are more susceptible to attack than vertical ones.
