CPVC Hot & Cold Water Piping introduction

2016-08-05

Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC) pipe, tube, and fittings have been successfully used in hot- and cold-water distribution systems since 1960. From 1960 to 2000, enough CPVC tubing was sold to plumb millions of typical single-family dwelling units and usage increases each year.

The products consist of ASTM D2846 SDR 11 CPVC tubing manufactured to Copper Tube Size (CTS) ODs (outside diameters) and CPVC sockettype fittings. The ASTM D2846 standard cover sizes ½-inch through 2-inch and both the tubing and fittings are tan in color. As hot and cold water piping, the system carries a continuous use rating of 100 psi at 180° F and 400 psi at 73° F. When sizes larger than 2-inch are needed, ASTM F441 Schedule 80 CPVC pipe made to iron pipe size (IPS) ODs and ASTM F437 and F439 Schedule 80 CPVC fittings are used. Plumbing codes may require proof testing of assemblies for 48 hours at 150 psi and 210° F. Most producers have had these tests performed to qualify their products for use under such codes. CPVC CTS tube and CPVC IPS Schedule 80 pipe is sold in straight lengths. Smaller diameter CTS tube is also sold in coils.
