Hi all,

Was wondering if anyone had about 7ish feet of 1.25 inner diameter soft plumbing for sale? I’ve been to multiple Home Depot’s and can’t get my hands on it. The only results on Amazon’s won’t deliver until early June.

Im not sure what the use case is but 1 1/4 is a common size and I literally saw it at Home Depot today. It’s the semi flexable stuff people use for spas.
 
What is the purpose for 1.25" pipe? Make sure your pump flow rate is sufficient if use for return. But if use for drain if it too big it will make a lot of noise.

You can tune the noise down with a gate valve but it kinda negates the reason to use larger tubing.

I personally have three 1” drains with gate valves.
