CPVC IS RESISTANT TO WATER TEMPERATURE
a. 93°C for SHORT term application
b. 82°C for CONTINUOUS application. It keeps hot water hotter and cold water colder as compared to GI and copper plumbing

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
A. Guidelines
- Connect minimum 1 mtr. Length of metal pipe to the outlet of hot water tank.
- Ventilation-proper air-venting on the hot water outlet side is a must.
- Use of expansion loop is highly recommended to avoid snaking effect caused due to expansion & contraction of pipe.
- Although CPVC has the lowest thermal conductivity amongst all alternate plastic plumbing systems, however to maintain thermal efficiency, it is recommended that the pipes should be insulated. PE foam may be used over the pipe to provide adequate insulation.
B. Horizontal and vertical spacing for pipe supporting(clamping of pipes)

Do not clamp supports tightly, it restricts the movement of pipe caused because of expansion and contraction.
INSTALLATION WITH SOLVENT CEMENT
SOLVENT CEMENTED JOINTING
a. Dry fitment-check joint of pipe to fitting without solvent cement, should fit up to 60 – 70%
b. Cold fusion joint (cold welded joint)
c. For diameters 1⁄2” to 2”, single step solvent cement
d. For diameters 21⁄2” to 4”, 2 step solvent cement (primer + solvent cement)
e. Primer helps to clean the surface of pipe & fitting and softens the material

|---|---|---|---|
| TEMP RANGE | PIPE SIZE 1⁄2” – 11⁄4” | PIPE SIZE 11⁄2” – 3” | PIPE SIZE 31⁄2” – 4” |
| 16° – 38°C | 2 minutes | 5 minutes | 30 minutes |
| 5° – 16°C | 5 minutes | 10 minutes | 2 hours |
| -18° – -5°C | 10 minutes | 15 minutes | 12 hours |
Note – Typical set schedule is required time before it is advisable to carefully handle joint. In wet or humid conditions, additional set time maybe required of up to 50% of amount listed. Use as general guidelines only.
f. Cure time-Curing time is longer than the set time. Curing means the joint has completely matured
g. The pressure test can only be performed after the joint is completely cured

Note – Joint cure schedule is the necessary time to allow before pressurizing system. In damp or humid weather allow 50% more cure time.
In case of using paint on CPVC piping system, use only Latex based paints which are water based to make it workable and brushable. No Oil/Solvent based paints are to be used as these paints can drastically reduce the life of the systems.
