We had a BlazeMaster Rep in the office last year and he did cite cases where the CPVC failed prematurely due to threading compounds and a few other materials. They have some information on compatibility of chemicals with their systems. I would suggest you tell your friend to contact the mfgr. of the pipe he's using for specific information on compatibility issues.
