CPVC stands for Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride, a thermoplastic material known for its high temperature and corrosion resistance.
CPVC pipes are widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial plumbing systems, especially for transporting hot and cold water.
Available Sizes & Types:
CPVC pipes typically range from ½ inch to 2 inches for residential use and up to 6 inches or more for industrial applications.
They are available in both SDR (Standard Dimension Ratio) and Schedule 40/80 variants.
Choose CPVC if you need a reliable, cost-effective, and corrosion-resistant piping solution that can handle high temperatures, particularly for hot water systems or industrial chemical use.
🚫 Limitations to Be Aware Of:
Not UV Resistant Long-Term: CPVC needs UV protection (like paint or insulation) for outdoor use.
Brittleness: More brittle than PEX or metal, especially in cold weather or if mishandled.
Chemical Sensitivity: Incompatible with some oils, solvents, and aromatic hydrocarbons.
Pressure Rating Drops with Temperature: At high temperatures, pressure handling capacity decreases.
