Nibco E159100 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a DWV test tee used for on a drain line?
The Nibco 814 test tee gives you a permanent access point in a copper drain, waste and vent line. Two solder cups carry the flow, and the third opening is a threaded cleanout fitted with a plug so you can pull the plug and rod or snake that section of the system when it clogs, without cutting pipe. It is used in both commercial and residential plumbing.
2) What sizes does the Nibco 814 test tee come in?
Three pipe sizes: 1-1/2 inch (E159050), 2 inch (E159100) and 3 inch (E159150). All are straight size, meaning both run cups match the nominal size, so a 2 inch tee takes 2 inch copper DWV tube on both solder ends. Pick the size by the DWV line it is going into, most commonly 1-1/2 or 2 inch for branch waste and 3 inch for a stack.
3) Are the ends on this Nibco test tee solder or threaded?
Both run ends are solder cups (C x C), so they are sweated onto copper DWV tube with solder. The cleanout branch is threaded and ships with a plug installed. So the only threaded joint you deal with is the removable plug, not the pipe connections.
4) Can I use this on PVC or cast iron DWV pipe?
No. The run ends are solder cups sized for copper DWV tube, so they only take copper. For a cleanout on PVC or cast iron you need a fitting made for that material, or a transition coupling ahead of the copper section.
5) Is the plug included with the Nibco 814 test tee, or do I order it separately?
The plug comes with the fitting. The 814 is supplied as a cleanout with plug, so nothing extra is needed to close off the access opening on install.
6) What material is the Nibco 814 test tee made of, and will it hold up in waste water?
It is a cast bronze fitting, ASTM B584 alloy C84400, and is dezincification resistant, which matters where waste water and varying water chemistry would attack a high zinc alloy. Material and workmanship follow ASME B16.23 for cast copper alloy DWV fittings.
7) Is a copper test tee acceptable on a commercial job spec'd to ASME B16.23?
Yes. The 814 test tee is built to ASME B16.23 for material and workmanship, is cast from ASTM B584 C84400 bronze, and is manufactured in an ISO 9001 certified facility. It is listed for both commercial and residential plumbing use.
8) Should I put in a test tee or a regular sanitary tee on a copper drain branch?
Use a plain DWV sanitary tee where the third opening is taking a branch drain or a vent. Use the 814 test tee where you want access instead of a connection: the third leg is a threaded cleanout with a plug, not a tube socket, so it is for rodding and testing the line, not for joining another pipe to it.
9) Does a copper DWV test tee count toward sustainable project credits?
Copper is reusable and fully recyclable at end of life, which is why it gets used on sustainable projects, and Nibco calls that out for its copper fittings. The 814 is cast bronze per ASTM B584 C84400 and made in an ISO 9001 certified facility.
