Reducing Tee for Potable Water

The Viega 22228 is a copper press-fit reducing tee designed for potable-water systems. It connects a 2 in run to a 1 1/2 in branch using press-fit connections on all three sides. An EPDM O-ring and centre-stop dimple are included for secure, leak-resistant joints.

Replaces Soldered or Threaded Tees

This fitting replaces traditional soldered or threaded copper tees in new installations or repairs. The press-fit method removes the need for open flame, flux or threading tools, making the upgrade worthwhile when fire permits are difficult or when installation speed is critical.

Sustained Pressure Performance

The fitting is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 200 psi in continuous service. Copper construction and the EPDM seal maintain joint integrity under long-term thermal cycling and pressure fluctuation without the degradation sometimes seen in threaded joints over time.
