How to Boil Water in PVC Pipe

I have been building wood steaming boilers, not PVC steam boxes, for about 2-1/2 years now and using PVC to boil the water in and produce steam. I use sch. 40 PVC and the correct cleaner and cement to go with it. PVC is rated at a much lower than it will really handle. I have run this steaming system for more that 12 hours at a time without any problems and complete safety. If you want more info about this, contact: woodsteamingsystems@Yahoo.com. Ernie
