O-Rings for filter canisters such as those in RO/DI units?


Anyone know of a place to buy orings for canister filters late at night? I was replacing a big carbon filter on the canister for my house and the **** O ring stretched out while tightening it and won't seal any longer. So no water throughout the house now : (.

Don't they have a 24hour home depot in the north suburbs?

This is a filter that covers the whole house so without one tonight there would have been no toilets, dishwashing etc.

Thanks for the responses, the parts counter at Zeigler Cat in Bloomington had some that are horribly over spec but they're open till midnight and somewhat close. $6 per O-ring but being able to flush a toilet tonight is priceless heh.

Menards was already closed by the time the o-ring failed. I really like the yellow Zeigler ones, they're puurdy
