Ring main for compressed air

by Scott

I am considering using Schedule 80 PVC in-lieu of steel pipe for a ring main. The air pressure will be approx. 150 psi. Is this a definite NO or is this something that others have tried? Thank you.

Scott, it's a definite NO unless you get the vendor of the plastic pipe to send you (email or letter) telling you that they approve of the application.
