3 types of pvc pipe i've seen . PRessure pipe- comes in schedule 40, 80 or
120 in the USA, in verious 'classes' in australia, where class number x 100
= kpa pressure rating.
THen youve got DWV - drain waste vent pipe- thinner walls, white pvc, no
pressure rating.
LAstly you have very thin green dwv pipe. I believe it's called 'cellular
core.'
THis is what i've seen.
Research says that green is typically used for sewers
