Any experience with Elmer's Pipe Company?

[CptJera]

Looked around for the heaviest 304 flex liner I could find and found Elmer's in Maine. http://www.elmerspipe.com/index.html
Pricing seems reasonable for 22 gauge 304 stainless. Right at $600 for 20' of 6", adapter, Tee and cap. Has anyone on here had any dealings with the company? Thanks.

It's been posted here once in a while. Here's a review.

Thank you, sir. And...yikes. Think I'll find another source for heavy wall. Not really what I wanted to hear, but it is what it is. Again, thanks.

22 ga? Are you going with rigid?

 

[CptJera]

I had considered it but too big a PITA to negotiate the last 4 feet. The offset isn't truly bad but I can see some issues trying to preassemble the pipe and negotiating the turns. No, I've just been leaning toward the heaviest single-wall flex I can find. The 304 ss in 22 ga offered by Elmer's sure looked reasonable at just over $600 for pipe, Tee and adapter. Of course, that's out of their 2008 online catalogue so it's likely a bit higher now. I'm simply leaning toward that thickness for something that will last at least my lifetime.

22ga would be like semi-truck exhaust pipe. We don't hear of failures here even with much lighter gauged liners. ForeverFlex is a popular brand with professional installers. It carries a lifetime warranty.

Seems about right for me. Major overkill. I'll check that link out. Thanks again.
