Yes, PVC pipe can be used outside, but it's important to consider UV exposure. Standard PVC can become brittle and degrade when exposed to sunlight over time. For outdoor applications, it's advisable to use UV-resistant PVC or protect the pipe with paint or insulation. Additionally, ensure the pipe is suitable for the specific outdoor application, such as drainage or irrigation.
