Viega 49434 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size runs and branch does the Viega 49434 PureFlow press tee have?
The Viega 49434 is a reducing tee: 3/4 inch on both run ends and 1/2 inch on the branch, ordered as 3/4 x 1/2 x 3/4. That is the configuration you want when a 3/4 inch main line carries past a fixture and you only need a 1/2 inch drop to the fixture itself.
2) What connection type does the Viega 49434 PureFlow tee use, and does it need a special tool?
All three ends are PureFlow press connections, listed as P1 x P2 x P3. They are made with PEX tubing and a Viega PureFlow press tool and jaw sized to the connection, not with crimp rings or clamps. There are no threads and no solder on this fitting.
3) Is the Viega 49434 tee a brass or a plastic fitting?
Polymer, not metal. The 49434 PureFlow press tee is a polymer body, which is what contractors reach for on potable water runs where they want to avoid brass in aggressive water. Keep that in mind for support and handling on the job, it is a light fitting at 0.061 lbs.
4) What is Smart Connect on the Viega 49434 tee?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature built into the PureFlow press tee. On pressure test, a connection that was missed leaks visibly so the installer can find it before the wall closes up. It is the reason inspectors accept a quick walk-of-the-system test on PureFlow press work.
5) How much space does the Viega 49434 3/4 x 1/2 x 3/4 tee take up in a stud bay?
The fitting measures 2.598 inches long, 1.843 inches wide and 1.087 inches high. That fits inside a nominal 2x4 bay with room for the tubing bend radius, but check your drop location against the branch takeoff before you press, since a pressed polymer tee cannot be repositioned.
6) Is the Viega 49434 made in the USA for Buy American or Build America requirements?
Country of origin on the 49434 PureFlow press tee is listed as Made In USA, which is what institutional and government procurement typically needs documented on a plumbing submittal.
7) Does the Viega 49434 PureFlow tee come with press sleeves or any other parts?
The 49434 is sold as the polymer tee itself, model 49434. Plan your order to include the PEX tubing and the correct PureFlow press sleeves and tool jaws for 3/4 inch and 1/2 inch, since the branch and runs are different sizes and take different jaws.
