Viega 20628 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the 20628 ProPress elbow press on both ends, or does one side solder?
Both ends are press. The connection type is P1 x P2, meaning press by press, so neither side is set up for soldering or threading. If you need to transition to a soldered or threaded branch at that turn, you want a press x FTG or press x male/female adapter instead of this elbow.
2) What does Smart Connect technology actually do on this Viega elbow?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: the sealing element is shaped so an unpressed fitting leaks visibly during pressure testing rather than holding tight and failing later. On a 3 inch main where a missed press is expensive to chase, that is the point of it. The 20628 carries this feature on both press ends.
3) Can I mix a Viega copper press elbow into an existing soldered copper system?
Yes, as long as the tube itself is 3 inch copper and the cut ends are clean, round, deburred and fully inserted to depth. The 20628 is a copper press fitting joining copper tube, so it is compatible with the same tube an existing soldered system uses. You cannot press onto a soldered stub that still has solder or flux residue on the press length, so cut back to bare clean tube.
4) Is the Viega 20628 elbow made in the USA? We have a domestic-content requirement.
Country of origin on the 20628 is Made in USA. For a government or institutional job carrying a domestic preference clause, that is the data point your submittal needs, along with the manufacturer part number 20628.
5) What part number do I order for a Viega ProPress 3 inch copper 90 degree elbow?
Viega part number 20628, a ProPress 90 degree elbow in copper with 3 inch press ends on both sides. One configuration only, so there is no finish or end-option to specify when you order it.
