Viega 49544 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size runs and branch does the Viega 49544 PureFlow press tee have?
The Viega 49544 is a reducing tee sized 1 inch x 3/4 inch x 3/4 inch, with press connections on all three ports. Use it where a 1 inch PureFlow run drops to 3/4 inch, for example a main trunk teeing into two 3/4 inch branch lines feeding fixture groups.
2) Does this Viega PureFlow tee need a crimp ring or a clamp, or is it a press fitting?
It presses. The 49544 is a PureFlow press fitting with Smart Connect technology, so it is installed with a Viega PureFlow press tool and jaws sized to the port, not with copper crimp rings or stainless cinch clamps. Smart Connect leaves an intentional leak path at an unpressed connection so you can find a missed press during pressure test rather than after the wall closes.
3) Can I use this PureFlow press tee on copper or CPVC pipe?
No. PureFlow press fittings are for PEX tubing in the Viega PureFlow system; the press ports here are P1 x P2 x P3, meaning all three are PEX press ends. For copper you need a copper press or sweat tee, and CPVC requires solvent-weld fittings. Transitioning from a 1 inch PEX run to copper takes a separate press-to-copper or press-to-thread adapter.
4) Is the Viega 49544 tee metal or plastic, and where does that matter?
It is a polymer body, not brass or bronze. Polymer PureFlow fittings are the usual pick where dezincification or corrosion from aggressive water is a concern, and they carry no metal content in the wetted path. If your spec drawing calls out a bronze or high-performance brass fitting, this is not the part that satisfies it.
5) How do I order the exact Viega reducing tee, and is it made in the USA?
Order by Viega part number 49544. It is made in the USA. The part ships as a single fitting weighing 0.084 lbs, which is worth knowing when you are ordering by the hundred for a multi-family rough-in.
