H20cooled Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I need to order a couple of items from US Plastics to finish up the CA Reactor that I'm building. I would prefer to buy the items locally but I cannot find anyone that sell Schedule 40 Gray PVC fittings. If you know of someone locally then please let me know. So, I'm going to place an order probably on the 11th or 12th. If anyone has something on there that they want and would like to go halves on the shipping let me know... The site is www.usplastics.com Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 You building another CA reactor? Something go wrong with the other one? Just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H20cooled Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share Posted July 11, 2006 Yep build a bigger and better one. Nothing really wrong with the other one, just something that I didn't like about it and I thought I could improve. My biggest issue with the DIY filter one is the excess Co2 and the low flow, plus it is hard to fill and does not hold a lot of media. The new one is a lot bigger but takes up less space and will have very good flow and very low Co2 usage. Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H20cooled Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share Posted July 11, 2006 Well due to the overwelling requests (laugh) to join the order, I'm assuming there isn't any interest in joining the order. So, I will just order the items that I need. Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acrylics Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Rich, Did you get all the parts you needed? ...you know you can always just give me a call if you need this stuff If I dont have it sitting around I can bring it in on my next order, usually every week. Always Sch80 Hayward, Spears, and Asahi. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H20cooled Posted July 18, 2006 Author Share Posted July 18, 2006 I'll have to order some more items soon, so I will call you when I get ready and see if we can tack mine on. Thanx James... Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H20cooled Posted July 18, 2006 Author Share Posted July 18, 2006 They might have some but the definatly do not have the true union ball valves that I need and they are quite limited on the fittings. I wish they did though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefgeek84 Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 They might have some but the definatly do not have the true union ball valves that I need and they are quite limited on the fittings. I wish they did though. What do the true union w/ball valves look like? I have unions with ball vavles that I got from Lowes off TV highway.

H20cooled Posted July 22, 2006 Author Share Posted July 22, 2006 Brandon, Check out the DIY thread that I posted of the CA reactor I made. That is where I used the True union ball valves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
