Revisions to the California Plumbing Code to Allow the Use of Perfluroalkoxy in Dialysis Branch Lines and Plastic Pipe in Plumbing Applications in OSHPD 1,2,3,4

Revisions to the California Plumbing Code to Allow the Use of Perfluroalkoxy in Dialysis Branch Lines and Plastic Pipe in Plumbing Applications in OSHPD 1,2,3,4

The Proposed Project would involve removal of existing exemptions in the California Plumbing Code prohibiting use of ABS, PVC, and CPVC pipe in OSHPD 1, 2, 3, and 4 facilities, as well as other changes to the Code to allow for the use of plastic pipe in OSHPD facilities. While the Proposed Project would not directly involve construction, the Proposed Project could result in construction activities as existing metal piping in OSHPD facilities may be replaced with plastic pipe or new OSHPD facilities may be plumbed with plastic pipe, pursuant to the new regulations.
