Yup, its just a Orbit's sprinkler piece. Its all PVC I believe, no metal. Its been working well so far for us.

This weekend we OKed the final drawings of both the sump and tank! I also got most of the basement cleaned out. I think I have one more dump run, and then some cleaning to do, then painting, and finally pick up some plywood for the tank stand. Its going to be a busy month in our house.

How much and how thick do you need? I have a LOT leftover from my tank stands and tank room that I don't know what to do with and is taking up a lot of space. I'd hate to to take it to the landfill (it has to go, I can't park in my garage because of it), and the nearest recycling station that I know of is in High River. So it's that, or it's kijiji giveaway... or a Canreef giveaway... let me know what you had in mind and if what I have will fit your needs please take it off my hands!!!!

As in anything I say doesn't make sense, or as is there is some kind of technical glitch that just shows the posts as unreadable somehow? Can anyone else read what I'm saying?
