Elkhart Products DWVTEE-4 Copper Dwv Sanitary Tee 4 in

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS DWVTEE-4 is a 4-inch copper DWV sanitary tee fitting designed for drain, waste, and vent piping systems. This fitting directs flow from a branch line into a main drain run while maintaining proper drainage slope and venting continuity. The sanitary tee configuration allows wastewater to enter from the side branch and flow downstream without creating turbulence that would disrupt venting. It is installed by licensed plumbers working on residential and light commercial DWV systems where copper is the specified pipe material.

This fitting is used in drain, waste, and vent rough-in applications where a 4-inch copper main line requires a side branch connection. Common installations include main stack connections, horizontal drain runs, and branch drain tie-ins within walls or below slabs. At 4 inches, this fitting is typically found on main building drains and primary stack assemblies rather than fixture branch lines.

Key Features

• Copper construction for corrosion resistance in DWV service
• Sanitary tee geometry supports proper drainage flow direction
• 4-inch diameter fits main stack and primary drain run applications
• Compatible with standard copper DWV sweat-solder joining methods

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for 4-inch copper DWV piping systems conforming to standard copper tube sizing.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or applicable local plumbing code. Shut off water supply and ensure the drain system is depressurized and dry before cutting into existing lines. Joints are made using lead-free solder and flux per code requirements for DWV copper fittings. Sanitary tees must be installed in the correct flow orientation — do not install in an inverted or horizontal position that would oppose drainage direction.
