Default Clear PVC fittings

Does anyone know where to pick up clear pvc fittings in Calgary? I run two phosban reactors off a tee from my return pumps, but the bottom filter in the first reactor is constantly plugging up and I want to install a filter in the line before it. I am thinking a clear 1" tee fitting would be ideal.

I do not think they make clear pvc fittings, they make translucent pipe, but i have not seen any fittings.

I found them in the U.S. but nothing local. One of these Clear Y Strainers would be perfect but they are $75.90 U.S.

Give me a few minutes, i will talk to a couple of wholesales, but pretty sure only pipe available, at least here in Edmonton. I looked a few months ago for some larger fittings (3" and 4") and was told only the pipe was available, maybe small dia. fittings are available.

Fencer is 100% correct, FABCO can get them in special order, tee or y strainer.
