Which Is Better? Copper Or Aluminum For Aircon Pipe

Hi everyone, we were at a fair at expo and was looking at Mitsubishi HI aircon, the staff offer us a free upgrade to 1/2 inch aluminum pipe cos we were the last customer as everyone is packing up. Just wondering is Aluminum really better than copper?

The model we took was SRK25ZJ-S

Free upgrade Alum SWG 17

Armaflex 1/2 Insulation Class 'O'

I don't know if copper or aluminum will function better. Copper and Aluminum will actually both oxidize due to water or humidity. Aluminum treated eg, anodized, powder coated, flurocarbon painted will last for yonks. But for the benefits of the air con, I really do not have a clue. But weight for weight, I can tell you copper is way pricier a commodity than aluminum. Try privately messaging Aron and see if he is willing to advise you. He is the air con expert here from what I read.
