WTB close valve for pvc pipes in grey color

[jellygeee]

Hi All,

I noticed that a lot of the close valve for PVC pipes that you use has a grey color. Where did you buy it?
I have been to HomeDepot and OSH and so far they only have the white colored ones.
Is this made different manufacturer and better quality?

Thanks,
Rudy

Quite possibly! Mine are all Hayward true-union ball valves that are very nice quality.

Ewing Irrigation in SF or San Carlos has them.

Thanks for the fast response, Dave and John.

Which one did you guys buy? There seems to be several types for PVC and CPVC Ball Valves. I don't think I need the double union since I have a 1" pipe. I will need the 1 1/2" inch ball valve.

Thanks,
Rudy
