Integrated Cleanout Access
The integrated cleanout opening and removable plug provide a dedicated service point within the DWV piping system. When maintenance is required, the plug can be removed to provide access to the drainage line.
This arrangement helps provide access for inspection and clearing obstructions without requiring an installed section of piping to be cut apart.
Hub x Hub Connections
The H x H configuration uses hub connections designed to receive compatible PVC DWV pipe. These connections are assembled using the appropriate PVC solvent-welding procedure.
Confirm the fitting size and mating pipe size before installation, and properly prepare the pipe and fitting surfaces before applying the appropriate joining products.
PVC DWV Applications
This cleanout tee is designed for PVC drain, waste, and vent piping systems. It provides a practical way to incorporate maintenance access into a DWV piping layout while maintaining a permanent solvent-weld connection to the adjoining pipe.
The fitting should be installed in an appropriate DWV application and positioned according to applicable plumbing-code and system requirements.
Accessible Maintenance Point
A properly positioned cleanout provides an important service and maintenance point within a drainage system. The cleanout plug should remain accessible after surrounding piping, walls, equipment, or other building components are installed.
Allow sufficient working clearance around the cleanout so appropriate maintenance equipment can reach the piping when inspection or clearing is required.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the required size.
- Keep the cleanout accessible.
- Verify PVC DWV compatibility.
- Use the proper solvent-weld procedure.
- Follow applicable cleanout installation requirements.
Our PVC DWV fitting specialists can help review your pipe size, hub connection, cleanout location, drainage application, installation requirements, and overall DWV system configuration before you order.
