Aquatopia Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 I think someone has suggested MICO plumbing. Essentially they are a plumbing item. Also - some of the larger water gardens or garden centres who do ponds etc may help too. (Although i can imagine if anywhere will be pricey they will be - but advice there is free - you could always get them to SHOW you what all the bits are).

Pies Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 Mico Plumbing & Pipelines in Wakefield street Lower Hutt is the best place in Wellington. HOWEVER make sure you know what you want before you go down there, also if you don't know the correct name take a photo. They loose patience quickly with people saying 'ive got a roung thing with spinning thing on the end and I want to make it smaller by using an angle thingie'. Get the names and size right first. Chimera has a link to Hansen which has pics and part numbers. Or try Bunnings, less selection buy you can browse the parts, pick them up and put them together onsite. 25mm 'bulkhead' which they won't know what you mean, they will call them 'tank inlets' are about $12.00 ea. Pressure pipe is expensive, so don't muck up, it can be costly. Don't rush, think it all through, do it once do it right. Pie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimera Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 As Pies says, compact ball valves are best sourced from Mico's. Mico get them from Plastic Systems - however you are better off asking for trade price at Mico's as they're about $5ea more direct from Plastic Systems (even thoug they are a wholesaler, not a retailer!)

Pies Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 Just done a plumbing run this week, going back in a few days for some 50mm taps, and tank inlets. 50mm OUCH! Sump tank move on the 21st... Got to get everything ready. Pie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
