Viega 28825 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What do the FTG x P ends on the Viega 28825 MegaPressG reducer mean for installation?
The 28825 is configured FTG x P. The FTG (fitting) end is sized to slip into another press fitting's socket, while the P end is a press socket that receives pipe. So you are not pressing pipe into both sides: one side mates to a fitting, the other takes the 1-1/2 inch pipe. Plan the run accordingly before you cut.
2) What sizes does the Viega 28825 MegaPressG reducer connect?
It reduces 3 inch to 1-1/2 inch. That is the transition it is built for, and it is the only size combination this model covers, so a different branch size means a different part number.
3) Is the Viega 28825 carbon steel or stainless, and does that matter for my gas line?
Carbon steel. MegaPressG is Viega's gas-rated press system, and the carbon steel body is meant to be pressed onto black iron pipe rather than copper or stainless tube. Don't mix it into a potable water run that calls for copper or stainless.
4) How much clearance do I need around the Viega 28825 MegaPressG reducer in a tight chase?
The fitting body measures 3.5 inches high by 3.5 inches wide, with an overall length of 5.953 inches. Add room for the press jaw on top of that, since the tool has to wrap the collar square to the fitting.
5) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 28825, and what does it do if I forget to press a joint?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-joint detection feature. During pressure testing an unpressed connection leaks noticeably so it gets found on the test rather than after the wall is closed. It does not replace pressing the joint, it just makes a missed one obvious.
6) Where is the Viega 28825 MegaPressG fitting manufactured?
Made in Germany. That matters on submittals and on jobs with country-of-origin reporting requirements, so the documentation is straightforward to supply.
