Which statement about CPVC is accurate?

• A. CPVC is used in high-temperature installations
• B. CPVC cannot operate at high temperatures
• C. CPVC is less suitable than PVC for high temperatures
• D. CPVC is never used in high-temperature applications

Answer: (A)

CPVC can handle higher temperatures than standard PVC, so it’s chosen for hot-water and other higher-temperature plumbing. That heat resistance is exactly why it’s used in high-temperature installations, making it the accurate statement. The other options contradict CPVC’s role in hot-water systems or claim it’s never used in high-temperature apps, which isn’t true.
