Viega 20893 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are the three connections on the Viega 20893 ProPress tee?
The 20893 is a reducing tee with two 3 inch press ends on the run and a 3/4 inch female pipe thread branch. Viega lists the connection pattern as P1 x P2 x FPT, so the two large ends crimp onto 3 inch copper tube with a press tool and the branch takes a male-threaded fitting, nipple, or gauge/sensor adapter. Overall size is 3 x 3 x 3/4 inches.
2) Can I thread a gauge or sensor into the branch of the Viega 3 x 3 x 3/4 ProPress tee instead of pressing it?
Yes. The 3/4 inch branch is female pipe thread, not a press socket, so anything with 3/4 inch male NPT threads into it directly: a pressure gauge, a temperature well, a drain valve, or a nipple to continue in threaded pipe. Only the two 3 inch run ends require a press tool.
3) What does Smart Connect do on this Viega tee, and does it change how I install it?
Smart Connect is a feature of the sealing element that lets an unpressed joint leak visibly during pressure test, so a missed connection shows up before the walls close. It does not change the installation steps: cut square, deburr, mark insertion depth, seat the tube fully, and press. With a 3 x 3 x 3/4 tee, the joint people most often miss is the far side of the run, so test both press ends.
4) Is the Viega 20893 ProPress tee the same part as the one my spec calls out, and where is it made?
The manufacturer part number is 20893, a Viega ProPress copper tee sized 3 x 3 x 3/4 with a threaded branch, made in Germany. If the submittal lists 20893, that is this fitting; a 3 x 3 x 3/4 ProPress tee with a press branch instead of FPT carries a different number.
