SpaFlex tubing price


Is 2 bucks a foot pricey for a foot of 1.5" spaflex tube? That's what a LFS is selling for.

from a LFS thats fair

for as little amount of 1.5" that you need paying for shipping will end up costing you at least that much anyway

the best place to buy it is a plumbing supply place. open up the yellow pages and make a few calls. many of them have spools of it just sitting their and will sell it to you by the foot

that's exactly what I thought...the shipping. i've searched and found that a lot of online places vary in shipping costs.

I think there's a spa manufacturer in chattanooga, I'll check them out in the morning

thanks

I bought mine from Lowes 1" I bought 40 ft and paid around 80.00 so if your getting 1.5" for 2.00 per ft. I would say thats pretty good
