Plumping Help.

I've heard that I shouldn't use the PVC ball values from my local hardware store (aka. Lowes and HD) So I was looking at savko.com and they have George Fischer ball values, are these the ones I'm suppose to use or would any of the ball values from savko work well or is there another site I should order from?

Thanks.

Go ahead and use the ball valves from HD or Lowe's- I dont see why not. I use them. Just rinse them good before using.

i have multiple home depot and lowes valves on my setup...have used them on various setups for the last 6 years,,,had no problems what so ever...

I prefer gate valves over ball valves... but they are a bit more expensive.
That being said; I have gate valves AND the regular ball valves from HD/Lowes

well OK then. I guess the Home depot values will work as long as they get rinsed first. Thanks for everyones input. It was very helpful.

One more question: Where is the best place to get 20ft of spaflex?
