PVC pipe is one of the safest and most tested materials used in North America. For over 60 years, every aspect of its production, use and disposal has been evaluated and approved by government and independent certification and testing agencies.
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight can affect the outermost surface of PVC pipe. However, even after prolonged exposure, there is no practical effect on PVC pipe’s performance characteristics
This document has been developed by the Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association for use as a field installation guide.General information regarding the correct installation of gasketed-joint PVC pressure pipe is included.
Uni Bell is to promote use of longer-life, lower-maintenance, corrosion-proof PVC piping in water and wastewater systems for real sustainability, strength and long-term asset management.
