You won't see any PVC used for compressed air lines in any commercial establishments. OSHA has a very severe fine in store for any company or employer that uses PVC for air lines. I remember reading about a farmer in Oregan (out there if you employ even one person, you are subject to all OSHA laws). If I remember correctly the guy used PVC to run underground air lines to each of his four chicken houses. There was no PVC lines exposed above ground, he had installed black pipe down to the horizontal PVC lines. This farmer got fined $1000 per line!!!! And, the lines had been in place before the OSHA regs had been adopted by the State, for small employers. That being said.... About 30 years ago Dad installed air lines from the main shop out to our machine shed and the grain bin shed, using PVC line underground (with black pipe running vertically down to the PVC). We have operated the line on 110 psi (when needing air out to the outbuildings) with no problems at all for all these years! For any above ground applications however, we use black pipe.... but PVC buried 30in. underground is not likely to injure anyone (IMO).
