Description
ABS DWV Vent Tee (HUB x HUB x HUB)
ABS DWV Vent Tees provide a three-way connection for routing vent piping within non-pressure drain, waste, and vent systems.
Featuring hub connections on all three ends, this fitting is designed to connect compatible ABS DWV piping where a vent branch needs to tie into a main vent or approved DWV line. The tee configuration supports airflow and system venting while maintaining a compact connection point. Manufactured for ABS DWV service, it meets recognized standards including ASTM D2661, CSA B181.1, and NSF Standard 14.

Connection Configuration
Main Vent Connections
Two hub connections form the primary vent piping path and accept compatible ABS DWV pipe for solvent-cement installation.
Branch Vent Connection
The third hub provides a branch connection for compatible ABS DWV vent piping.
Vent Tee Design
The vent tee provides a compact three-way connection where a branch vent needs to join a main vent or other approved DWV vent path.
Its tee-style geometry supports vent routing and airflow rather than serving as a pressure-piping fitting.
All three hub connections are designed for compatible ABS solvent-cement joining and non-pressure DWV service.

Installation
Verify all three nominal hub sizes before installation and confirm the intended vent piping arrangement.
Cut all mating ABS pipe ends square and remove burrs. Clean and prepare the pipe and hub surfaces according to accepted ABS solvent-cement installation procedures.
Dry-fit the assembly first to confirm main vent and branch vent orientation before applying solvent cement.
Apply compatible ABS solvent cement as required and fully seat each pipe into its corresponding hub while maintaining proper alignment.
Allow completed joints to cure according to the solvent cement manufacturer's recommendations before placing the vent system into service.
Our piping specialists can help review your pipe size, vent layout, branch configuration, and ABS DWV compatibility before you order.

What is an ABS DWV vent tee used for?
It is used to provide a three-way connection in ABS DWV vent piping for connecting a branch vent to a main vent or other approved vent line.
What does HUB x HUB x HUB mean?
It means all three ends are hub-style connections designed to accept compatible ABS DWV pipe.
How many connections does this fitting have?
It has three hub connections.
Is a vent tee the same as a sanitary tee?
No. Although both are three-way fittings, their intended configurations and applications can differ. This product is specifically identified as a vent tee.
Does this fitting require solvent cement?
Yes. All three hub connections are intended for compatible ABS solvent-cement installation.
Is this fitting intended for pressure systems?
No. This fitting is intended for non-pressure ABS DWV applications.
Can it be used for compressed air or gas?
No. The supplied product information states that ABS DWV fittings are not intended for transporting compressed air or gas.
Can this fitting be used for pressure testing?
No. The supplied product information states that ABS DWV fittings should not be used for pressure testing.
What is the maximum operating temperature?
The supplied product information specifies applications where operating temperatures do not exceed 140°F.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm all three nominal hub sizes, branch orientation, mating ABS DWV pipe sizes, and the intended non-pressure vent application.
