Asahi's own installed-project list is dominated by plants that had leaking PVC or CPVC piping before switching — at least 9 of 26 documented installations explicitly replaced failed PVC/CPVC, the same failure mode a wrong-material choice creates on a new water-treatment butterfly valve line.
Every one of these municipal case studies is a plant that already tried PVC or CPVC and watched it fail in service — the Type-57P earns its spot on a water treatment plant BOM by outliving the material it's usually asked to replace, not by being cheaper on day one.
