PVC conduit is the lightest in weight compared to other conduit materials and is usually lower in cost than other forms of conduit. It is available in three different wall thicknesses, with the thin-wall variety only suitable for embedded use in concrete, and heavier grades suitable for direct burial and exposed work. The various fittings made for metal conduit are also made for PVC. The plastic material resists moisture and many corrosive substances, but since the tubing is non-conductive an extra bonding (grounding) conductor must be pulled into each conduit. PVC conduit may be heated and bent in the field. Joints to fittings are made with slip-on solvent-welded connections, which are set up rapidly after assembly and attain full strength in about one day. Since slip-fit sections do not need to be rotated during assembly. Since PVC conduit has a higher thermal coefficient of expansion than other types, it must be mounted so as to allow for the expansion and contraction of each run. Care should be taken when installing PVC underground in multiple or parallel run configurations due to the mutual heating effect of cable.
BRIGHT WATER CONDUIT PIPE MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS PRESCRIBED BY THE FOLLOWING STANDARDS ORGANIZATIONS:
BRIGHT WATER Electrical products are suitable for a variety of utility uses, including gas transmission, power, and utility, telephone, as well as telephone and fiber-optic non-pressurized applications. PVC electrical fittings including elbows, sweeps, boxes, spacers, and couplings are available to complement the line.
PVC pressure pipes are manufactured from un-plasticized polyvinyl chloride polymer (a thermoplastic material) using the extrusion process. PVC (also known as PVC pipes are widely accepted for use in water supply, irrigation, and sewerage rising mains.
Their high strength-to-weight ratio together with exceptional resistance to corrosion or chemical attack makes these pipes ideal for major infrastructure applications.
BRIGHT WATER PVC pressure pipes meet the requirements of AS/NZS 1477 “PVC pipes and fittings for pressure applications” and the Water Services Association of Australia (WSAA) Reticulation Code WSA 03.

APPLICATION
This specification covers PVC solid wall pipe and PVC DWV fitting used in sanitary drain, waste, and vent (DWV), sewer, and storm drainage applications. This system is intended for use in non-pressure applications where the operating temperature will not exceed 140 F.
Pipe and fitting shall be manufactured from virgin rigid PVC (polyvinyl Chloride) vinyl compounds with a Cell Class of 12454 as identified in ASTM D 1784.
PVC Schedule 40 pipe shall be Iron Pipe Size (IPS) conforming to ASTM D 1785 and ASTM D 2665. PVC DWV fittings shall conform to ASTM D 2665. All systems shall utilize a separate waste and vent system. Pipe and fittings shall conform to NSF International Standard 14.
Installation shall comply with the latest installation instructions published by and shall conform to all applicable plumbing, building, and fire code requirements. Buried pipe shall be installed in accordance with ASTM D 2321 and ASTM F 656 and solvent cement conforming to ASTM D 2564. The system shall be protected from chemical agents, fire-stopping materials, thread sealant, plasticized vinyl products, or other aggressive chemical agents not compatible with PVC compounds. The system shall be hydrostatically tested after installation.
In modern plumbing, a drain-waste-vent (or DWV) is part of a system that removes sewage and gray water from a building and regulates air pressure in the waste-system pipes, facilitating flow. Waste is produced at fixtures such as toilets, sinks, and showers, and exits the fixtures through a trap, a dipped section of pipe that always contains water. All fixtures must contain traps to prevent sewer gases from leaking into the house
The venting system, or plumbing vents, consists of pipes leading from waste pipes to the outdoors, usually through the roof. Vents provide a means to release sewer gases outside instead of inside the house
BRIGHT WATER Pipe’s ASTM D3034 Gravity Sewer PVC product line is manufactured to meet the needs of modern municipal wastewater systems, residential waste water control, and other non-pressure applications. With top-quality raw materials and modern processing technology, North American Pipe’s ASTM D3034 Gravity Sewer pipe meets all industry standards in addition to our own rigorous quality control standards. Our ASTM D3034 Gravity Sewer pipe utilizes Reiber-style gaskets throughout the entire product offering. Whether specifying or installing our pipe you can be assured that North American Pipe will provide the pipe.
STANDARDS:

Casing pipes and screen ensure that the water well remains a perennial source of clean water. Some years ago the choice was only metal pipe and Screens. The disadvantages were corrosion of casing pipes, determination of screens, and formation of bacteria, resulting in the abandonment of wells and, even worse contamination of the water source.
PVC well casing and screen are widely used because it is light strong, easy to install durable corrosion resistant, and relatively inexpensive. The choice of any material depends upon its strengths and weaknesses in relation to the particular intended use. Condition at a water well drilling site and within a borehole or generally aggressive. PVC casing and screens are easily able to withstand most conditions but it is important for a driller engineer or hydrogeologist to be aware of conditions or circumstances that might prejudice the integrity of PVC and consequently the borehole. The aim is to provide a basis for the correct selection and handling of PVC casing and screen.
