From what I have read it seems CPVC is used for residential hot water lines when copper is not being used (and copper is expensive).
I was assuming cPVC and PVC were the same but that is not the case. cPVC is more specialty when compared to PVC since it can handle a higher temperature and pressure, and costs a bit more [1].
