Never heard of this.
Ive only ever seen standards and manufacturers documentation saying that CPVC 
products are approved for wet systems only.

Maybe instead of telling him no, you can ask client to produce the 
documentation saying it is acceptable – we can do whatever the client wants as 
long as it complies with codes, standards, manufacturer’s docs, and AHJ 
approval.

That way you don’t have to risk being wrong, while maintaining compliance based 
on your own knowledge.

Subject: [Sprinklerforum] CPVC in dry system

I had a client tell me this morning that there was something about CPVC being 
approved for residential dry systems where low pressure dry valves were used. I 
have never heard of it and can’t find any references about it. Before I tell 
him no, is there something that I am missing?
