Used to join perpendicular pipes or a sprinkler to another pipe. The example here shows a point before teeing into a 6” main. When selecting the Tee command, HydraCAD will prompt with: Pick point to tap from

Pick some point above the main. HydraCAD will then prompt with: Please pick the pipe to tap into

Pick the 6” main.

HydraCAD draws a line from the picked point to intersect with the horizontal main. The horizontal main is broken at the point of intersection, and the length dimensions updated to accommodate the break.

*Tip* - If connecting a sprinkler head to a pipe, always pick the sprinkler head before picking the pipe.

*Tip* - If you start a Line or Main, you can SHIFT+CTRL+RT-CLICK over a pipe to (tee) into it.
