Viega 26590 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size outlets does the Viega MegaPress 26590 reducing tee have?
The 26590 MegaPress tee is a 3 inch x 3 inch x 1-1/2 inch reducing tee. The run is 3 inch on both ends and the branch drops to 1-1/2 inch, so it is the fitting you use to pull a 1-1/2 inch branch off a 3 inch main without adding a bushing or a separate reducer at the branch.
2) Is the Viega 26590 tee copper or steel, and what kind of pipe does it go on?
It is a carbon steel MegaPress fitting, so it is intended for black iron / carbon steel pipe, not copper. If the line you are working on is copper tube, a carbon steel press fitting is the wrong family for it.
3) What is Smart Connect on the Viega MegaPress 26590 tee?
Smart Connect is Viega's feature that lets an unpressed joint leak visibly during pressure testing, so a connection you missed shows itself before the system goes into service. On a 3 x 3 x 1-1/2 tee that matters, because you have three separate presses to make on one fitting and the branch is easy to overlook.
4) How much room do I need to fit the 3 inch MegaPress tee in a tight ceiling space?
Plan around the fitting body at 8.268 inches long, 6.799 inches wide and 5.193 inches high. On top of that you need clearance for the press jaw or the 3 inch pressing ring and actuator to swing around each socket, so a 3 inch press joint takes noticeably more working room than the fitting alone.
5) What part number do I order for a Viega MegaPress 3 x 3 x 1-1/2 carbon steel tee?
Order Viega part number 26590. It is the carbon steel MegaPress reducing tee in 3 inch x 3 inch x 1-1/2 inch, manufactured in Germany.
