- - WTB: Plastic FLOAT Valve (http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=20239)

Haven't made it to Home Depot yet but I'll go there tomorrow. I did, however, go into Rona today and I noticed they don't have the style I use anymore, they have some other style now with metal parts. Not sure why the change and I don't know if it's just this one Rona or all of them.

But I did come across one in my bag-o-miscellaneous stuff, I had bought one a few weeks ago for my soon-to-be-online 115g cube so I thought I'd snap a picture of it so you can see what it looks like (in case you're still interested in the info). I'll check the SKU# tomorrow when I'm at HD.

next time you are in home depot, can you note down the item #? i believe is usually 6 digits long ie 146 633.
thanks

Hey I did go to HD last weekend. Found the humidifiers, but they didnt really have any replacement parts. I even asked the guy in the aisle. He pointed me to the plumbing section for those Toilet float valves.

mine is exactly the same as the one tony posted a pic of.

Yup, that was the aisle I was in. Like I said, I even asked the HD guy who was working in that aisle.

I'll try that SKU next time.
