Viega VIEG79060 Propress Check Valve Lead Free 2 Inches

Product Description

The Viega VIEG79060 is a 2 inches ProPress Check Valve designed for lead free potable water applications. It is built from bronze and uses a press connection method for fast, reliable installation without open flame or soldering. Check valves are essential components in plumbing and HVAC systems. They allow flow in one direction and automatically prevent backflow, protecting equipment, water quality, and system pressure. This model is designed for inline installation, meaning it fits directly into the pipe run to control flow direction. The VIEG79060 uses EPDM sealing elements, which provide excellent resistance to water, steam, and a wide range of temperatures. EPDM seals are well suited for potable water systems where long term sealing performance is critical. The Viega ProPress system is widely used by plumbers and mechanical contractors because it eliminates the need for soldering or threading on copper and bronze fittings. A press tool crimps the fitting onto the pipe in seconds, reducing labor time and jobsite risk. This valve is compliant with lead free standards, making it suitable for use in drinking water systems where regulatory requirements apply. Bronze construction gives the valve durability and corrosion resistance in wet environments. At 2 inches, this check valve handles high flow rates common in commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, and cooling systems. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors working on new construction or retrofit projects will find this valve straightforward to install and dependable in service. It is a practical choice for any system where backflow prevention and fast press installation are both priorities.
