pvc is pressure rated for fluid, abs is rated for no pressure at all. pvc has better options for fittings though, but abs is slightly tougher under high heat.

I'd use abs because of the higher heat capasity but i still think would rig up some decent metal piping on the hot side

I ran all pvc piping for about 6 months. It held up great.
