My neighbor's got a leak in the hot water line running from the

line. He's going to use Copper. Wouldn't it be better to use
PVC?

If it is hot water, you might use CPVC. But not PVC. PVC is not
good for hot water.

I done screwed up then , all the plumbing in our new house is PVC
... oh wait , it's good for up to 140° and we keep the water heater
set at around 125° to avoid potential scalding . Still , it will
bear watching ...
That's why I have a problem getting water in my weighing cup up to
120+ to use in my bread machine.

My bread recipes all call for 105° to 110° , I usually preheat the
mixer with hot water . I only use mine for mixing and the first rise
. FWIW I just started recently using Seal of Minnesota unbleached
baking flour from the local Mennonite store . Beats the stuffin' out
of the stuff we were buying at Walmart . Picked up a 50 lb bag just
today ... I make all our loaf bread , hamburger and hot dog buns ,
bread sticks , pizza dough . The wife does the sweet stuff ...

"Mine" above refers to my bread machine ...
