A +1 on the "rather solder copper" than work with threaded pipe. Had started 
with threaded connections and discovered it was difficult for me to get a 
non-leaking connection at 175 psi. I was finally able to get it to go with 
Teflon paste - threw the Teflon tape back in the toolbox to use for water 
connections. Anyway, switched to 1", 3/4" and 1/2" "L" copper and it went 
much more smoothly after that.
