Top reasons why CPVC pipes are ideal for potable water supply

The uninterrupted flow of clean water is one of the world’s most basic requirements. Be it in a residential, commercial, or industrial project, plumbing systems form an important consideration during installation. The clean delivery of water does not just depend on the source but the pipes used for transport as well. 

The high performance and superior quality of CPVC pipes have made them the leading choice for plumbers around the world. Overcoming a myriad of concerns that plagued traditional metal pipes, CPVC industrial pipes offer long-term and hygienic water supply solutions.

Here we take a look at the top reasons that make CPVC the perfect choice for all potable water supply systems.

Hygienic water supply: In an attempt to keep the water clean and safe for drinking, there may be permissible amounts of chlorine and other similar disinfectants in the water. Traditional pipes would react to these chemicals leading to an adverse reaction. CPVC industrial pipes, however, do not get affected by these chemicals thus allowing an uninterrupted supply of clean and hygienic water.

Optimal flow performance: Over time, mineral deposits and sediments can get accumulated in the pipes which reduce the flow rate and also weaken the pipes. CPVC pipes have a smooth internal surface which prevents any sediment from sticking to them. Not only does this ensure a clean water supply but also prevents blockages that may interrupt the water flow.

Lightweight and easy to install: One of the biggest advantages of CPVC pipes is that they are extremely lightweight while retaining high tensile strength. This makes it easier to install and also cost-effective in terms of transportation and labour. Additionally, fittings play a crucial role in determining the life and performance of a plumbing system. CPVC pipes come with leak-proof joint fittings that are strong and durable enhancing quality and performance.

Hot and cold water: CPVC pipes can transport water up to 93 degrees Celsius without damage. Exposure to hot and cold temperature water often causes pipes to crack or burst. However, CPVC pipes can easily transport water across various temperatures without getting damaged.

Corrosion resistance: Constant exposure to water would lead to severe rust and corrosion concerns in traditional metal pipes. Not only would this compromise the safety of the water but lead to damage in the pipes requiring faster repair and replacement. CPVC pipes do not allow rust to form thus enhancing their service life. This quality also helps make them the perfect choice for all potable water systems.

 All these benefits and more make CPVC industrial pipes the ideal choice for plumbing systems across a range of applications. For optimal performance, be sure to choose a high-quality piping system.
