Water Change?

[Sweet Lew]

OK..So tee it up and a valve on each end. Got it! I'll start looking for parts.

Cheers!

Found this on the OASE site. Would this work just as well??

i bet it would cost more than the tees and ball valves. what size pipe are you using?

 

[Sweet Lew]

I found it for $20 on one pond site.

I think it's 1-1/4". I measured the pipe from inside edge to inside edge.

1-1/4" tee $0.96
1-1/4" PVC Ball Valve $5.65

Thanks Jason!

So that is one option. However, will the OASE y diverter do the same thing as a t-fitting and 2 ball valves?? I'm just trying to make this as simple as possible.

yes you could use it but i wont allow as much flow..

Well, I was able to fix my old Beckett pump! I replaced the plug and it fired right up! Went to the local pond\pet store down the street and picked up 12 feet of tubing. Did my water change in 15 minutes!!
