PVC Flex Tubing

[Scavenger]

I'm no expert by any means, but I'm assuming by "low pressure applications" that it means you wouldn't have any valve or restrictors (ie tap faucet, ball valve) to impede the flow.

I know our pumps can put out high volumes, but if it's not restricted in any way, how high is the pressure? Perhaps your tubing would work.

Think of the way a coiled garden hose reacts with water flowing through it, and then put a spray nozzle on the end and observe the same.

It might be worth the experiment, then again, that's just me.

Is that clear piping at HD actually PVC or is it something else because that might complicate any connections you want to make (assuming you plan on using PVC glue). Why do you want clear pipe anyways, I hate it becuase its vulnerable to algae growth.

It's doesn't have to be clear at all, I'm just trying to figure out the right flex piping I need for my return. I'm new to this whole plumbing thing

I'm learning about plumbing too. Talk to Albert at Golds, he should be able to sell you everything. I'm stopping by there tomorrow to pick up the stuff I need.

Just use the tried and true hard piping (schedual 40 - pressure piping) so easy to cut and glue. Also very cheap at home depot

When I was doing my plumbing I checked all the usuals HD Rona etc. Albert at Golds Had all the best stuff and was actually cheaper than getting the lower quality stuff at the hardware and plumbing stores. If you want you can spend the time driving around to research it all yourself but I'm sure you'll end up with Albert

I'll see Albert on the weekend then. I only really need a couple feet to come off my pump to the wall and then I am switching up to Sch.40 PVC up the back of the tank and into it. I just need the flex to come off the pump.
