Viega 44226 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size PEX and what size copper does the Viega 44226 stub-out ell connect?
The Viega 44226 PureFlow stub-out elbow is 1/2 inch crimp on the inlet and 1/2 inch copper FTG (fitting end) on the outlet, so the PEX side takes 1/2 inch PureFlow tubing and the copper leg slips inside a 1/2 inch copper fitting or sweat valve socket. Leg lengths are 3-1/2 inches and 6 inches.
2) Is the 44226 stub-out copper or brass, and will it sweat to a copper stop valve?
It is copper, body and both legs. The outlet is an FTG end, meaning it is sized like tubing and goes inside a copper socket, so it solders directly to a copper fitting or a sweat-on stop valve. If you are using a compression or threaded angle stop instead, you want a threaded stub-out, not this one.
3) How far does the Viega 44226 stub-out project out of the wall for a lav or toilet supply?
The long leg is 6 inches, which is the leg that comes through the finished wall, and the short leg is 3-1/2 inches back into the bay. Overall length measures 6.06 inches with a 3.81 inch width, so plan your rough-in off a 6 inch projection and confirm your escutcheon and stop valve stack fits behind the fixture.
4) Can I use this stub-out instead of a drop-ear elbow for a shower arm?
No. A shower arm needs female threads and a mounting ear to anchor to blocking. The 44226 has a crimp inlet and a copper FTG outlet, no threads and no mounting ear, so it is meant for supply stub-outs to a stop valve, not for a threaded shower or tub spout drop.
5) Is the Viega 44226 made in the USA? I have a domestic-content requirement on the job.
Yes, the 44226 PureFlow stub-out is made in the USA. That is the fitting itself; crimp rings and other components you buy separately carry their own country of origin.
