I use PVC pipe for water service and sleeves for various underground utilities. Correct installation requires a highly volatile primer to break/chaff the outer surface. You then apply solvent (usually misnamed glue) to attach the pieces. The pieces are melted together......not glued. Vance is right on the money with his observation about finding a compatible sealant. Without the nasty purple primer sometimes the pipe rejects the solvent. I would stick with factory install or use boat making materials like Vance did.
