Planning a basement sump room and trying to plan on what to use for the drain and return lines. Ideally I would like continuous lines (no joints) as this will be above a finished ceiling. I looked into Pex but I can't seem to find anything bigger that 1". I also could not find fittings in poly to go from pex to threaded or barbed.
My second thought was using the black tubing used for underground sprinkler systems. This fits many of the standard poly fittings. A friend told me this tubing may leach unwanted chemicals into my system.
I am planning two seperate drain lines and one main return that splits when it gets to the tank for a total of about 60'.
Maybe flexible PVC is my best option?
