So long story short I may have to run lines outside for a bathroom remodel, those lines would run to a water heater outside.
It's not my preference but I don't have much choice.
I'd build a structure to hold the water heater, and it would have a jacket, the structure would have insulation as would the pipes.
So I've heard that CPVC doesn't hold up as well under direct sunlight, but is CPVC any better or worse under cold weather than copper or steel pipe?
I live in South Texas so freezing is rare, hard freezes are even more rare, maybe a few freezes each season and somethimes we don't even get a deep freeze, but when we do it's one to three max...
