Default Where to find 1 and 1.5 inch flexible tubing

Hi guys

I am looking for a 1 and 1.5 inch flexible tubing for my cube return /drain lines to connect to my sump. I hate runing pvc pipe because too much works :-)

Anyone know where i can find these. So far i only checked home depot and there is none

Thanks

Try Rona but they are expensive.

Service counter at most spa and hot tub dealers. That is where I always get mine. HTH,

If you have Princess Auto nearby go there. Much cheaper than Rona/Home Depot.

If you are talking about SPA flex (bendable pvc), you can find some at Western Pump in the south east. That's where I got mine. If you are looking for that black ribbed stuff that you often find on pond installations the only place in town that I've been able to find it is at Pisces Pet Emporium.

+1 - Western Pump is the best place for that stuff, and other obscure plumbing bits-n-pieces around here.

For black ribbed tubing, wouldn't Big Als also have it? I would imagine any store that offers pond speciality items might have it. Pisces for sure though.

The last couple if times that I've been to big ALS they did not have any. Might not be in season for them yet cuz ya I know they usually do. Pisces always seems to have them year round.
