Why I Switched to PEX Press #plumbing #trades #viega
What happens here
Take a section of Viega manufactured PEX pipe and securely insert it into a Viega PureFlow fitting. It is critical to ensure that the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting. This proper depth can be visually verified by observing the "witness marks" on the fitting; the pipe should extend past or up to these marks. The presenter explains that if this connection were accidentally left unpressed, it would leak, but highlights that such an oversight can be easily corrected by simply pressing the fitting later, even if the connection is wet or dry.
Goal: Achieve full insertion of the PEX pipe into the fitting.
