The type of service they are to be used for In a home PVC is used for the drains,the drain vents,main out going sewer line,water supply lines for a boiler/heating system or sprinkler systems. In a home CPCV is used to supply water to sinks,toilets, showers,hot water heater and exterior faucets... Because of the difference in usage there is also a difference in the wall thickness between the PVC pipe and CPVC pipe... So a 3/4 in PVC fitting will not match up to a 3/4 in CPVC pipe and vise versa...
Yes.

Depending on what kind of sewer, its age, and the utility owner (Storm Sewer, Gravity Sewer, Sewer Forcemain). - Polyvinyl Chloride Pipe (PVC) - Ductile Iron Pipe (DIP) - Fiberglass Reinforced Pipe (FRP) - High Density Polyethelyne (HDPE) - Pre-Stressed Concrete Cylinder Pipe - Asbestos Cement - Clay - Steel
Yes.
As far as I know, uPVC (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride) sewer pipe is still a very costly specialty item, and currently only used for gutters and the like. PVC and uPVC are essentially the same thing expect for one difference. uPVC is not plasticized. The plasticizers in PVC are the main thing by which it causes enviromental damge. Mechanically speaking though, it would make no difference. PVC is very common and works quite well in all its applications. If you want to save major cash though, use ABS.

PVC pipe fittings are typically used in plumbing. Therefore, if a damaged drainage line needs to be repaired with a new PVC pipe fitting, typically a plumber would be the type of professional required to perform the work.
