Viega 79710 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are the connections on the Viega 79710 ProPress union, and does it thread onto existing pipe?
The 79710 is a P x FPT union: one end is a 1 inch ProPress crimp socket for copper tube, the other is 1 inch female pipe thread. That makes it the transition point between a pressed copper run and anything with a 1 inch male thread, like a valve tailpiece, a pump nipple, or a threaded steel stub. If you need press on both ends, this is not the part.
2) Is the Viega 79710 union lead free for potable water?
It is a Zero Lead bronze union, which is what puts it on potable water service alongside the rest of the ProPress bronze line. The body material is bronze throughout.
3) What does Smart Connect do on a Viega ProPress union, and does it mean I can skip pressing a joint?
Smart Connect is the feature that makes an unpressed connection leak when the system is pressure tested, so a missed crimp shows up on the test instead of inside a finished wall. It does not replace pressing. Every ProPress socket on the 79710 still has to be crimped with the jaw for 1 inch.
4) How much does the 1 inch ProPress union weigh for a takeoff?
Each 79710 union weighs 0.822 lbs. On a large bronze fitting count that adds up quickly when you are figuring hanger spacing or box weight for a multi-unit rough-in.
