Default Best place to get plumbing supplies

Like the title states looking for the best place to get supplies so I can plumb my sump and return. I live in Langley so I'm looking for something local too.

Corix on Hwy 10 in Cloverdale. Back warehouse has all the PVC parts you'd need (and cheap). It's all meant for underground sprinklers but it's the exact same stuff. I don't think they would have bulkheads though. 8am to 4pm.

Cheers.

Bulkheads are pretty cheap at reef stores, but finding a decent plumbing place for the rest makes a big differance. I found a decent one out on mcallum exit, i can't remember the name now though. I found it after i'd spent 150+ on plumbing at a different place, then paul at OC told me about this other one. It was a good deal, i'll try to get the name for you, It's only 20 min from langley depending on where abouts you live.

+1 for Corix for most PVC fittings

Lighter duty bulkheads are cheaper at aquarium stores unless you insist on sched. 40 or sched. 80... (J&L)

The best price that I've found for true union ball valves was at a pool and spa supply where they were significantly cheaper(unfortunately the place I went was in North Van, but you could check locally)

I love Corix. Every city needs at least one PVC candy store.

Thanks for all the replies. I bought my bulk heads at J&L so I just need to get PVC fittings sounds like Corix is the place to go.

Does anyone know the name of the place in abbotsford just off the mcallum exit?
