Pipes, valves, and fittings are the core components of a plumbing system, and their role is to direct fluid from point A to point B within a building or home. The longevity of the plumbing system itself depends on a number of factors. One of which is the type of material used for the components. By choosing the right material, whether it’s steel, copper, stainless steel, PVC, CPVC or aluminium. The fluid within the system can be controlled and the system itself can work more efficiently.
PVC and CPVC Valves and Fittings
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) are the materials of choice for plumbing ball valves and fittings. These materials are chosen for their ability to withstand high temperatures and are designed for use in both hot and cold water systems. PVC and CPVC connections are made with CTS (Copper Size Tubing), which is a much smaller pipe size than IPS (Iron Size Pipe). In summary, PVC and CPVC are versatile and can be used in residential, commercial and industrial applications.
Installation Precautions
When installing PVC and CVPC plumbing ball valves and fittings. Plumbers have a variety of joining methods to choose from, such as those listed below:
Solvent cementing – using solvent end connections
Threaded – using MNPT/FNPT end connections
Compression – using a compression end, which includes a rubber seal and often a nut and non-slip ring
Flange – using a flange end connection and a threaded or slip-on connection at the other end
