    Don’t forget that PVC cannot be used in waste systems where organic solvents are dumped, as many (esp. ketones and aldehydes) will dissolve the plastic pretty quickly. Glass piping is usually the material of choice in such instances. Plus, with glass you can see where stoppages occut which is cool to watch it clear, and you know when you got the clog.
