Same here, but if PVC were used, the State allows it.

Supply is different from distribution.

PVC is allowed for supply by most model codes, but not for distribution. However, as just pointed out by Rick, individual localities can make their own codes and regulations.

According to that publication, PVC can be used for cold-water distribution in IL.
