1" clear plastic tubing

[willist0]

I just finished building my 30 gal sump, I have everything I need to install it, including a ATO system. The only thing I don't have is 1" clear plastic tubing that I need for my return. I've checked Ace Loews and Home Depot no luck. I did find 1" reinforced plastic tubing in Ace however (you know the tubing with the white thread embedded in the plastic} I just want to make sure there isn't any bizarre reason that I can't use it. It's safe right?

I've used that before with no problems. It should just be reinforced clear PVC tubing.

I use it on our system between return pump and the pvc return plumbing it's safe.

That type of tube is actually food grade. There's no problem at all in using it.
