PVC (http://www.euroaquappr.com/pvc-pipes.htm) stands for Poly Vinyl Chloride. This term is popular in the World Wide. It is widely used for produce Plastic, after the stage of Polyethylene and Polypropylene. This is used in construction works. To compare copper, iron or wood in construction applications, it is most effective one. There PVC (http://www.euroaquappr.com/pvc-pipes.htm) Piping is one of the greatest inventions. It is a combination of both Mechanical and Chemical Engineering, so it is also known as piping engineering. For this, our house hold plumbing technology is a famous and common example. This is one of the most common materials those used for construction works. The major advantages are as follows: It is light Weight; for steel or other products, we need two or more persons based on product weight; but for this one there is only one single person can handle easily;so there is no need of more workers to install it; also their labor charges also reduced slightly; they can’t get injuries often; and they took minimum time only to compare others; it is cheap in cost; transport cost also cheap due to is weight; these PVC products use only simple connectors and adhesives; but steel products need welding sometimes, as well as costly connectors; this is easy to handle and install; more flexible than other galvanized products; this is a great one, because it is an inert and stable material; it does not react with chemicals suddenly; this cannot conduct electricity; this is safe to use in sand or other chemical places;

it avoids corrosion; it is basically used for these reasons only in industries; it requires minimal amount of knowledge to install, as well as minimal amount of tools also; this product is very strong and durable; based on this it is used for long term applications; also in deep underground applications; when we compare to steel, it is twice in strong; this product’s wall are smooth; so fluid can flow smoothly; thus PVC plumbing technology have lot of advantages. “No one is fully perfect in the World”. As per this quote, these products also have some disadvantages. They are: sometimes gases are leaked from it; this is reacting as cancer – causing agents; it is not a good choice to flow or move any other thing than water; if pressurized gas moved means, it will blast in sometimes; it is self insulating;

even it can handle hot water, it have only less flame resistant; it is a major disadvantage; also it is produced in more than 2 inches; this makes them inflexible; along with this its joints or connectors also bulky; at last it does not fit well; this also have volatile compounds, which harmful to environment; in many cases people complaints water gets plastic taste slightly;

it is also get cracks easily; when temperature increases its strength will reduce; they are not installed in higher temperature, because it is non decomposing property. Due its disadvantages, people moved to put other advance piping systems like UPVC (http://www.euroaquappr.com/upvc-plumbing.htm), PVC (http://www.euroaquappr.com/pvc-pipes.htm), PPR (http://www.euroaquappr.com/ppr-pipes.htm), and PPR-C (http://www.euroaquappr.com/ppr-fittings.htm). This product purchase and production also slightly reduced, because of new inventions. Anyhow, there is no one can replace the PVC Pipes and Fittings usage place still now.
