Eric,
I strongly not pressure testing the PVC. It may hold pressure for a
while. But, the lines WILL EXPLODE some time. There is a warning on SOL
someplace about that. I also have a friend that has a huge shop that
was all plumbed with high pressure PVC. It lasted several years. One
day it blew out! Luckly, it blew up in a corner in the ceiling. He said
it was like a cannon going off and shrap PVC all over the place. The
section that blew was at the far end of the shop so no one was hurt!!!!!
