Sylvan,
you keep saying “Plstic on drainage means NOISE and failures.” I have been using PVC for nearly 20 yrs now, but without the problems you keep mentioning. What failures are you refering too ?? And to be honest, what noise

As for water service I agree with Sylvan, its Copper Copper Copper. If you are using solvent welded PVC pressure for water service, you need 24hrs before turning on the pressure. Long time without water if a repair is needed
