    If you mean coming down out of a T&P valve the answer is yes. http://www.texasinspector.com/Temper...structions.pdf

    As a rule we use copper but CPVC's acceptable. Good luck, Tom

    We also use copper, usually type "M". This pipe has to be sloped and lead to the exterior, terminating 6" above ground.
