What pisses me off is when I was buying the pipe "BOB the plumber" was buying pipe also and I asked him which had the higher temp rating and BOB said PVC. Wish I had got his company name that way I would know who not to call if I need service.
I guess I'll have to put some type of shield around it to keep the manifold heat away form it.
