Default Water pipe question

I Went to look at the progress of my new construction tonight and noticed the drinking water lines are thin wall pvc not schedule 40. Is this acceptable in Fl?

It must be code or it would not be used in such a large development.

Check it out with Sumter County.

Second new house here in four years. We have built seven times in our lifetime and bought three other new homes.

These homes are well built.

I wish someone would say the same for me.
