FLOWGUARD® CPVC
VS. OTHER CPVC

With more than 1 billion feet of CPVC installed in plumbing systems around the world in 2017 alone CPVC is the material of choice for hot and cold plumbing systems.  

When deciding on the materials for your system, it’s important to note that not all CPVC is the same. As the pioneer of CPVC technology FlowGuard® pipes and fittings are backed by over 60 years of successful installations. (In fact, some of our early systems are still in use today!)

FlowGuard® CPVC continues to meet or exceed the necessary safety, performance and quality assurance requirements of key international approval agencies, including:

  • ASTM International
  • NSF International
  • Kiwa
  • Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS)
  • British Standards (BSi)
  • Saudi Arabian Standard Organization (SASO)

FlowGuard® CPVC exceeds other CPVC brands in distinct areas:

 

Superior Material Properties

FlowGuard® CPVC systems are the only complete CPVC pipe and fitting systems made from materials that have been pressure rated by the Plastic Pipe Institute®.

  • 33-80% higher resistance to impact fracture
  • 8-92% higher sustained pressure resistance at elevated temperatures
  • Fittings last up to 4X longer at elevated temperatures and pressures
