Good Day All. The Bernzomatic TS8000 Torch Head is advertised to have a 'Ultra-Swirl' type flame. It also has an adjustable flame allowing me to dial it down pretty small. When working with 3/4" and 1" copper pipe and fittings, what is an appropriate distance to maintain between the torch flame and the copper pipe & fitting cup being heated up for soldering ? I expect those of you that are professionals are using more sophisticated torch heads. This is what I have to work with and I need to make the best of it. In the end, I'll be working with 1" Tees, Elbows, and forged brass Ball-Valves. Really appreciate all feedback.
