Charlotte Pipe PVC-429-3X3X1-1/2X1-1/2 Dwv Reducing Cross

Product Description

The CHARLOTTE PIPE PVC-429-3X3X1-1/2X1-1/2 is a reducing double sanitary tee cross fitting designed for PVC drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems. It accepts 3-inch main run connections and 1-1/2-inch branch connections, making it a practical solution for combining multiple drain lines into a single gravity-fed waste system. This fitting is rated for non-pressure DWV applications only, with a maximum service temperature of 140 degrees F. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during rough-in work on residential and light commercial drain systems. The fitting ships as a single unit and is manufactured in the USA.

This reducing cross is used in gravity-fed drain, waste, and vent systems where two branch lines at 1-1/2 inches need to tie into a 3-inch main stack or horizontal run. Typical install scenarios include bathroom group rough-ins, laundry drain stacks, and utility drain configurations. It is not rated for pressure service or for systems where fluid temperature exceeds 140 degrees F. PVC DWV fittings of this type are a standard choice for residential new construction and remodel plumbing.

Compatibility

Designed for use in non-pressure PVC DWV piping systems. Suitable for gravity-fed drain, waste, and vent configurations in residential and light commercial plumbing where 3-inch main lines intersect with 1-1/2-inch branch drains.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and ensure the drain system is empty before cutting into existing lines. Solvent cement joining is the most common method — use a PVC-rated primer and cement and allow full cure time before restoring flow. This fitting is rated for DWV service only and must not be used in pressure or high-temperature fluid systems.
