Maintaining and repairing building stock has been a recurring need owing to the natural degradation of materials and structure under the combined effects of loads and environmental factors. In the past, the practice was to replace old buildings that had deteriorated or that were no longer suited to their original purpose. More recently, the widespread deterioration of our infrastructure and the high cost of replacement give us no option but to repair and rehabilitate.

History of PVC piping in plumbing applications: The earliest recorded sample of PVC occurred in 1870, but it remained strictly a laboratory curiosity for decades before it found use in commercial applications. First successfully mass produced by German manufactures in the early 1930's, PVC pipe was installed in several hundred German homes prior to World War II. With the exception of those damaged in the war, all the pipes installed are still in use to this day with few problems and few signs of aging.
   
Water supply and Sanitation has acquired a very important position in the building construction and maintenance field, so much so that it has become a separate discipline and specialists in the field, prepare schemes for building structures. Development in Plumbing, fixtures and pipes are taking place very fast and new material and designs are coming to the market every day. Any plumbing system involves use of pipes for either water supply or for drainage system. Selection of proper size and material is an important step to provide proper plumbing system. Plumbing pipes are generally manufactured from different material like Cast Iron, Mild Steel (GI), Steel, Concrete, Asbestos Cement, Stone ware and different combination of Plastic. Types of pipes normally used for various applications are given below:
   
CPVC Pipes – Benefits & Applications The boom in the building and construction industry, especially in the housing and commercial building sector has fueled high demand for cost effective, reliable, quality piping and plumbing systems. The choice of piping systems for water utilities is based on overall long term value. They must deliver on factors like long term costs, reliability, versatility, environmental effect, drinking water safety and public health. CPVC Piping systems are the ideal choice, because they are corrosion resistant, durable, smooth, friction free, resistant to bacterial growth and environment friendly, besides a host of other user friendly features.
