Anyway, hot water tanks run at 125+ degrees for decades in PVC.
Water does not compress. Very little stored kinetic energy. Air is compressed, lots of stored kinetic energy.
I was referring to working temperatures..You're right about the kenetic energy.
I agree with you..PVC wasn't designed for this, but the burst pressure and temp fit in the ranges and I have used this without issue for years, with a little care and common sense it works. As I said, I'm not selling this as ideal. Please, don't take me the wrong way, I'm not trying to argue, I agree with you in general.
