Default Polyethylene tubing?

Anyone know where I can get polyethylene tubing (the stuff used to hook up RO/DI units) in the GVRD?

I've checked the orange place and its blue competitor and all they have is transparent PE tubing. I'm looking for opaque tubing to prevent bacteria growth.

Thanks.

It's the same material to hook up ice makers to fridges. You can get it at HD in rolls. If not, Coast Wholesale appliances might have some, as they sell filter units.

You can try Skeans or New Line hose and fitting.

Thanks guys. Picked up a bunch at New Line along with some fittings. Running a line from the Aquasafe down from the kitchen to the basement where the tank is so I don't have to lug those 5 gallon pails anymore (a common activity if you're running a 100+ gallon tank).
