There are several performance attributes that make Corzan CPVC more effective than polypropylene. First, Corzan CPVC offers better flame and smoke resistance. Second, Corzan CPVC is more rigid than polypropylene. This allows for an improved support spacing schedule. In addition, CPVC has a truly irreversible, highly reliable joint. Finally, polypropylene is not listed by the Plastic Pipe Institute (PPI) for pressure-rated application.
