I'm having to re-do my pad after The Big Chill here in Texas, and am shopping for PVC. Almost all the schedule 40 I see has printing, barcodes, etc. which I don't want. The shiny, unmarked, UV resistant sch. 40 stuff that I've found is not NSF rated (I've read this this rating is important for applications that either are to be inspected, or to prevent standing water from picking up a plastic taste). I thought some of the furniture grade PVC was schedule 40, but it's apparently not, and not for use in plumbing.
Common Schedule 40 fittings shouldn't be an issue, as the ones I've looked at do not seem to have all the markings that the piping does. The ones originally used by the pool builder were Lasco sched 40.
Appreciate any info along with a source, as the local Lowe's / Home Depot only seems to carry the standard piping having all the markings.
Thanks!
