? I am building my MT and using CPVC on the inside to conect the water supply screen to the ball valve. I built and T that threaded on the inside of the ball valve coupler and attached the screen with hose clamps. My question is: is there any problem using cpvc pipe and fittings held together by the adhesive specific for cpvc? Any help is appreciated. Oh on the adhesive container it has the NSF logo?
 
CPVC is designed for potable water, and high temp household water. I see no reason why it should be problematic. HOWEVER i would not glue it together in too many places. Being able to take it apart for cleaning (scrub the inside occasionally) is going to be helpful.
 
I dont have any of my cpvc pieces glued together. They fit together tightly enough that they do not come apart unless pulled apart.
