My understanding is that CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride, I think)
plastic pipe is made for hot water use. I don't know about temps above
boiling. Available at most home supply stores. This may have been what
you used, but you didn't say. Cheers, Frank

BTW the only rad I have come up with so far worth testing is the Suzuki
Swift
or the Geo Metro. Those are the only ones I have found so far near the
right
size. If we need more thickness we can double them up in a back to front
flow
hot water arrangement. The durabilty issue can be solved by mounting
them in a ridgid frame.
