SWR Reducing Swept Door Tee

Description

The SWR Reducing Swept Door Tee is an essential fitting that combines the superior flow characteristics of a swept tee with the added functionality of a maintenance access point. Crafted from high-quality uPVC, this component is designed for optimal performance and long-term reliability in soil, waste, and rainwater drainage systems.

Uses:

• Creating a Junction with Access: This fitting is used to create a connection between a smaller lateral pipe and a main vertical or horizontal drainage line, while providing a crucial access point for maintenance.

• Problem Diagnosis and Clearing: The “door” feature—a removable, threaded cap—allows plumbers and homeowners to easily open the pipe at a critical junction to inspect for blockages or to insert cleaning tools like a plumber’s snake.

• Strategic Placement: It is typically installed at key points in a plumbing system, such as at the base of a vertical stack or where multiple lines converge, to serve as a designated point for future maintenance and troubleshooting.

Advantages:

• Unmatched Maintenance Access: The primary advantage is the built-in access door. This feature turns a routine connection into a strategic access point, making it incredibly easy to clear clogs, remove blockages, and perform inspections without having to cut into or disassemble the pipe system.

• Optimal Flow and Reduced Clogging: Like the standard swept tee, its angled design (typically 45 or 87.5 degrees) ensures that waste and water flow smoothly from the branch line into the main line. This minimizes turbulence and prevents the accumulation of debris, significantly reducing the likelihood of clogs.

• Corrosion and Chemical Resistance: Made from uPVC, the fitting is highly resistant to corrosion, rust, and the chemicals found in typical wastewater. This guarantees a long, maintenance-free life and superior structural integrity.

• Enhanced System Longevity: By providing an easy way to clear minor issues before they become major problems, this fitting helps extend the overall lifespan of the entire drainage system.

• Easy Installation: Despite its added feature, it maintains the lightweight and easy-to-install properties of standard SWR fittings, using simple push-fit or solvent cement joints for a secure and leak-proof connection.
