Viega VIEG79035 1/2 Inch Propress Check Valve Lead Free Bronze Press Connection

Product Description

The Viega VIEG79035 is a 1/2 inch ProPress check valve designed for potable water applications where lead-free compliance is required. Built from bronze, this valve delivers reliable one-directional flow control in plumbing and HVAC systems. It uses Viega's press connection method, which eliminates the need for open flame soldering. This makes installation faster and safer, especially in tight spaces or occupied buildings where torch work is restricted. The press connection system is widely trusted by licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors working on commercial and residential projects alike. The VIEG79035 is an inline check valve, meaning it installs directly in the pipe run to prevent backflow. Backflow prevention is critical in potable water lines, heating systems, and any application where reverse flow could contaminate water supply or damage equipment. This valve uses EPDM sealing elements, which provide excellent resistance to water, heat, and common chemicals found in plumbing systems. EPDM seals maintain a tight, leak-free connection over years of continuous service. The lead-free construction meets the requirements of the Safe Drinking Water Act and is suitable for use in systems that carry water intended for human consumption. Plumbers, mechanical contractors, and HVAC technicians working on code-compliant potable water systems will find this valve meets current standards without requiring additional documentation of material compliance. At 1/2 inch, the VIEG79035 fits standard residential and light commercial pipe sizes. It pairs with other Viega ProPress fittings and tools, making it easy to integrate into an existing ProPress system. Whether you are replacing a failed check valve or building out a new plumbing rough-in, this fitting delivers professional results with a straightforward press-and-set installation.

• Lead-free bronze construction meets Safe Drinking Water Act requirements for potable water systems
• ProPress press connection eliminates open flame soldering for faster, safer installation
• EPDM sealing elements provide long-lasting, leak-free performance in water and HVAC applications
