Viega ProPress XL reducer 2-1/2" x 1

This copper crimp fitting connects a 2-1/2 inch tube to a 1 inch tube in potable water systems. It is designed for installers who need a straight adapter with a press-fit connection on one end and an FTG connection on the other. The EPDM O-ring provides a seal rated for the listed pressure and temperature limits.

Sustained pressure and temperature performance

The fitting meets ASTM B75 and ASTM B88 standards for copper tube. It is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 200 psi and a maximum operating temperature of 250 degrees F. These ratings apply to continuous service conditions rather than short bursts.

Thermal and mechanical limits in normal use

Copper construction handles the specified temperature range without degradation of the EPDM seal. The overall length of 4 17/32 inches allows a compact joint that fits within standard piping layouts. No external power or active cooling is required for operation.

Questions about this item

Does the Viega 20814 ProPress XL reducer generate any noise or heat when water runs through it all day?

The copper body and EPDM O-ring have no moving parts, so the fitting runs silently and does not produce heat; it simply withstands up to 200 psi and 250 °F continuous service.

What tools or components must I already own to install this 2-1/2" x 1" press-fit reducer?

You need a compatible ProPress XL press tool and jaws for 2-1/2 in and 1 in copper tube, plus clean, deburred Type K, L or M copper tubing cut to length.

Will this reducer work with my existing copper piping that meets ASTM B75 and ASTM B88?

Yes, the fitting is manufactured to ASTM B75 and ASTM B88, so it connects directly to standard copper tube sizes 2-1/2 in and 1 in without adapters.
