PVC is superior t metallic pipes in all respects- no corrosion and
should last longer than the house.

I was talking to a plumber and he told me that new houses being built

superior to copper.

Is this true? It seems to me that copper would stand up better against
the elements "freezing, etc" than Plastic would.

Please advise.
