Essential Plumbing Tools Every Pro Should Know
What is the main advantage of using CPVC over regular PVC for hot water lines?
Correct Incorrect CPVC, or chlorinated polyvinyl chloride, can endure higher temperatures than regular PVC, making it suitable for hot water lines. Regular PVC, typically used for cold water lines, can warp or fail under high temperatures. CPVC's temperature resistance and added flexibility make it easier to install in tight spaces.
