Anyone has used PPR pipe for hot water plumbing?

My contractor recommends to use PPR pipes instead of copper or stainless steel tubes.

Anyone has used these PPR pipe before?

Thank you.

Yeah. PPR is ok for hot water … get PN20 instead of Pn16 and try consider insulation layer to wrap your pipe

If you still prefer copper, then insist the contractor use that material. Afterall you are paying for the installation.

My new house uses PPR pipe as recommended by my architect as well. apparently hospital grade, lesser joints than copper, and much less noisy.

Alternatively you can also use PB piping. Both totally OK.
