PPN: “The construction & plumbing industries deserve better than cherry-picked data & half-truths” from #plasticpipe companies. We agree. Manufacturers should acknowledge risks posed by products, not spout talking points. buff.ly/fwsOJDU

PVC pipe makers brag about reliablity but a survey of utilities found over 1/3 FAIL due to problems at INSTALLATION, according to a Utah State study that was funded by a #plasticpipe association. Is #plasticpipe durability a pipe dream? buff.ly/RXxcTS3

The #plasticpipe industry touts research praising #PVC’s low break rates. But average metal pipes have served decades longer than plastic ones. That's comparing classic sedans, road-tested for decades, to 2010 models with 50k miles. Another used-car pitch from plastic pipe companies? buff.ly/SvFAFql
