What is CPVC?
Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) is a thermoplastic produced by chlorination of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin. CPVC is significantly more flexible and can withstand higher temperatures than standard PVC. It is commonly used in hot and cold potable water distribution systems, as well as industrial piping for handling corrosive fluids at elevated temperatures.

PEX
PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) is a flexible plastic piping material used in plumbing applications, often as a substitute for copper or CPVC.
PVC
PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is another plastic piping material that competes with CPVC in various plumbing and industrial applications. CPVC is a post-chlorinated version of PVC, offering increased temperature resistance.
Cast Iron
Cast iron piping is an older alternative to CPVC, traditionally used for drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems. Though less common now, it still competes in certain applications.
copper
Copper piping is a traditional alternative to CPVC for water distribution systems.
