Is there any consensus on whether or not to use PVC or CPVC for air lines?
My compressor is capable of 150psi.
I already have copper for most of my distribution system but I need to add a
branch and the copper prices are profanity inducing.

Neither PVC nor CPVC is considered safe for compressed air service.
This is according to both OSHA and the pipe manufacturers. There are
some flexible plastic products that can be used for air lines, i don't
know how they price compared to copper.
