I’m beginning to not like mobile homes ![icon_confused.gif](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/internachi/original/3X/b/9/b9bc35e1fe092635ae12ff5d569e322135079dfa.gif) .  
  
  
Can someone tell me anything about this plastic pipe? It's not PB although it looks similar. I found it in a 1995 build MH as supply lines.

Jeff,  
  
  
Look at my link to the PB HandBook One on the PB thread.  
  
Go to page 9 and check how to read the markings. That is PB, "CTS" just means "Copper Tube Size" and "IPS" just means "Iron Pipe Size", still PB though.

Thanks Jerry. I thought they stopped manufacturing PB in the late 80’s. I guess that doesn’t necessarily mean that they stopped installing it ![icon_biggrin.gif](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/internachi/original/3X/8/3/83717c74df9b0ce202453063bc4f11baf0ee6b8a.gif)
