Not sure where in TN you are - we're south of Nashville and it's VERY humid. That alone might cause the patina. If the green is mainly around or under a connection, look for a leak, but that's something usually with some crystals that have precipitated out of the water contact with the copper and has an appearance of a leak.

A friend bought a house in Tennessee and has been told that the copper plumbing in his new home will all fail. He tells me that some of the pipes are green and that is very bad news.
What would make the metal turn green and is this really a problem?
