Business
DIY Vertical Planter Kits
Create and sell ready-to-assemble planter kits that include the P417 tee(s), short 4" and 2" pipe sections, end caps, net pots, mounting hardware, and an irrigation drip emitter. Market to urban gardeners and apartment dwellers as an easy, space-saving gardening solution. Offer customization (colors, wood tops) and assembly videos.
Preassembled Drain Branching Kits for Remodels
Offer preassembled DWV branching kits targeted at contractors and DIY renovators: the tee pre-glued to specified pipe lengths, with labeled inlets/outlets and installation instructions. Save on-site labor and reduce error risk on complex drains; sell through plumbing supply stores and online B2B channels.
Rainwater Distribution Manifolds
Manufacture and sell compact rainwater redistribution manifolds for small farms and gardens using the 4x4x4x2 profile. Use the 2" inlet for supply from barrels and the 4" outlets to feed multiple irrigation zones or large soaker lines. Include filters, ball valves, and mounting brackets as an upsell.
Workshops & Maker Classes (PVC Upcycling)
Host paid workshops teaching participants to turn plumbing fittings into home decor, furniture, and hydroponic systems. Include a take-home kit with a P417 tee and materials. Partner with community centers or maker spaces; monetize by selling finished products and starter kits after the class.
STEM Education Kits for Schools
Develop classroom kits that use the sanitary tee to teach fluid flow, pressure, and branching networks. Kits would include multiple tees, clear pipe segments, colored dyes, pumps, worksheets, and lesson plans aligned with curriculum standards. Sell to schools, homeschool co-ops, and educational suppliers.
Creative
Modular Vertical Planter Tower
Use the 4x4x4x2 sanitary tee as a connector to build a stackable vertical planter. Cut short lengths of 4" PVC to act as planter sleeves, glue them into the 4" outlets, and use the 2" inlet as a drip irrigation feed. Stack several tees with pipe risers between them to make a space-saving, multi-level planter for herbs or succulents. Seal seams with outdoor silicone and add drainage holes to each sleeve.
Industrial Multi‑arm Lamp or Candle Stand
Turn the fitting into a modern industrial lamp base or candle candelabra. Insert 4" pipe arms into the three main ports and use the 2" inlet as a wiring channel (or a small accent arm). Top pipe arms with wooden or metal discs to hold candles or lamp sockets. Sand, paint, and clear-coat for a finished look; use the 2" channel for hidden wiring.
Hydroponic/Aquaponic Net‑pot Manifold
Repurpose the fitting as a small hydroponic manifold: make round cutouts in 4" pipe sleeves to accept 3" net pots, glue them into the 4" outlets, and use the 2" inlet to feed nutrient solution. The large 4" chambers provide excellent root space and the right-side 2" inlet makes plumbing a neat single feed. Ideal for a desktop NFT or small raft system.
Geometric Side Table Base
Create a statement side table by assembling several sanitary tees and short 4" pipe stubs into a geometric base. Use the 2" inlet as a recessed cord channel if adding a lamp or LED accent. Cap and finish the top with a round wooden or resin tabletop. Paint or powder-coat for a modern industrial aesthetic.
Hands‑on Fluid Dynamics Demo for Makers
Build a clear-panel demo board using the tee and short transparent PVC sections (or cutouts) to show branching flows, venting, and drainage behavior. Add flow dye or colored water and a small pump feeding the 2" inlet to demonstrate how flow divides between branches. Great for maker spaces, science fairs, or classroom displays.
