One problem with PVC revolves around the use of Chloramines to clean the water. The use of Chloramines interacts with PVC and can actually result in lead leaching from brass fittings. This is highly toxic and can threaten the health of you and your family. There are also carbon implications in the use of PVC. PVC is far less efficient than several green alternatives, owing to the necessary thickness of the pipe, which reduces the internal diameter, and requires greater energy expenditure to transport water. Over a 50-year lifetime, this difference can mean millions of dollars.
