Joshua,

Copper piping or CPVC?

CPVC has a LOT of compatibility issues with many products, even many common caulks (which are, of course, used to 'caulk around the pipes').

Good - Americas - FGG/BM/CZ™ System Compatible Program

Not good - FGG/BM/CZ™ System Compatible Program

Some good / some not good - FGG/BM/CZ™ System Compatible Program
