The inspection showed that PVC (not CPVC) was being used as
the T&P drain. The inspector stated that this may not have been
against code when it was built (8 years ago), but was not considered
acceptable according to his standards.

Standards are what national and local authorities
say are standards, enforced by legislation. The
inspector's preferences may be based on professional
experience but that does not make them standards.
