Ca reactor feed

[JoJo]

Hey Shao,

If the T fittng you bought has a 3/4" threaded o/p, you can buy a fitting at HD, in the irrigation section. The i/p is threaded 3/4" designed to screw onto bibs normally for gardening hoses. The o/p is a compression fitting for 1/4" irrigation tubing. Ace uses this setup to feed his TWP. If you need some tubing, let him know.
Ps. This fitting is black in color and comes in a card board backed clear plastic package. It can be found in the irrigation section next to the pvc fittings, hanging on the rack, at the HD (Henning and Gilmore BBY). It looks similar to the female fitting on a gardening hose with a cone added.

I agree with delphinus, take the parts to a proper plumbing supply store (or a hot tub shop or RV supply shop) and they should be able to set you up with something that will work. HD has a very limited supply of "non-standard" parts. I don't know Burnaby though so I can't sugest a store.

thanks for all the input guys.
i gave HD one more shot and i came out victorious.
my sump return is now "t"ed and is now feeding the reactor!

Good to hear!!

So, what fitting did you ended up getting? Just curious.

[smokinreefer]

i got the 1"x1"x3/4"threaded "t"
where the "t" connects to a 3/4>1/2" reducer
which connects to the 1/2>1/4 compression adapter...which is the 1 you pointed out.
:D

Glad that You got the feed to the reactor working!!!
I guess the 3/4">1/4" compression fitting is out of stock, otherwise, you could have done it without the reducer.
