Description
PVC DWV Wye (Hub x Hub x Hub)
PVC DWV Wye Fittings provide a smooth branch connection for non-pressure drain, waste, and vent piping systems.
Featuring hub connections on all three openings, this fitting accepts compatible PVC DWV pipe for permanent solvent-weld installation. The wye configuration introduces a branch at a gradual angle, helping support efficient gravity flow while reducing abrupt directional changes in residential, commercial, and institutional DWV systems.

Connection Configuration
Main Run Inlet
The first hub accepts compatible PVC DWV pipe as part of the main drainage run.
Branch Connection
The angled branch hub accepts compatible PVC DWV pipe and introduces the branch into the main run through a gradual transition.
Main Run Outlet
The opposite hub continues the primary DWV piping run with compatible PVC pipe.
Construction Details
The fitting is manufactured from durable PVC for resistance to corrosion, chemicals, moisture, and long-term wear in compatible drain, waste, and vent systems.
All three hub connections are designed for solvent-cement joining to compatible PVC DWV pipe, creating secure permanent joints when properly installed.
The angled wye configuration promotes a smoother branch transition than a perpendicular tee-style connection, helping support efficient gravity drainage and reduce unnecessary turbulence.
Why Choose a DWV Wye?
Smooth Branch Transition
- Creates a gradual branch entry
- Supports efficient gravity drainage
- Reduces abrupt directional changes
- Useful for horizontal branch connections
- Suitable for new installations and repairs
PVC DWV Construction
- Corrosion-resistant material
- Lightweight construction
- Resistant to many common plumbing chemicals
- Designed for solvent-weld assembly
- Suitable for long-term non-pressure service
Typical Applications
Residential DWV Systems
- Building drains
- Fixture waste branches
- Horizontal drainage runs
- Branch drain connections
- General residential DWV layouts
Commercial & Institutional DWV
- Commercial drainage systems
- Building waste piping
- Branch line transitions
- Repair and retrofit work
- Institutional plumbing systems
Solvent-Weld Installation
Verify the nominal size of all three hub connections before installation. Cut compatible PVC DWV pipe square and remove burrs from the pipe ends.
Clean and prepare all mating surfaces according to accepted PVC solvent-weld procedures. Apply compatible PVC primer and solvent cement where required, then fully seat each pipe into the appropriate hub.
Confirm the branch orientation before the solvent cement begins to set. Allow completed joints to cure according to the cement manufacturer's recommendations before placing the system into normal service.
Our plumbing specialists can help review your pipe size, branch layout, flow direction, and solvent-weld installation requirements before you order.

What is a PVC DWV wye?
A PVC DWV wye is a three-opening fitting used to create a gradual branch connection within a compatible drain, waste, and vent piping system.
What does Hub x Hub x Hub mean?
It means all three openings are hub or socket connections designed to accept compatible PVC DWV pipe.
What is the main advantage of a wye fitting?
The angled branch creates a smoother transition into the main run than a perpendicular branch fitting, helping support efficient gravity flow.
How is the fitting installed?
All three hub connections are installed using compatible PVC solvent-weld procedures.
Is this fitting intended for pressure piping?
No. This fitting is intended for non-pressure drain, waste, and vent applications.
What material is the fitting made from?
The fitting is manufactured from durable, corrosion-resistant PVC.
Can this fitting be used for branch drain connections?
Yes. Wye fittings are commonly used where a compatible branch line needs to enter a main DWV run through a gradual transition.
Do I need PVC primer and solvent cement?
Use compatible PVC primer and solvent cement as required by the manufacturer, solvent-cement instructions, and applicable plumbing requirements.
What standards are referenced for this fitting?
The supplied product information references ASTM D2665, ASTM D1784, CSA B181.2, and applicable NSF/ANSI standards.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm the nominal size of all three connections, branch orientation, and compatibility with the intended PVC DWV system.
