where to get float switches?

[networkfishman]

hey gang,

I'm trying to fix my ATO but not sure where to get the float switches? I've looked at HomeDepot and Petco. My next trip will be to the plumbing store in Watertown, but can't go there until Monday. Does anyone know of a good place to get them either online or store that's not too expensive?

Thanks!!

hehe! I know that one, but they don't just sell the individual floats. :/

Yea, that was my hopes! I'll definitely let people know if I find one locally for a good price.

Ok, found a website:
http://www.hawkfish.org/snailman/diytofloat.htm
that lists them as:
Madison Miniature Vertical Liquid Level Switch model M8000
and we can get them at Grainger, there part number is:
2A554
for:
$12.02

I guess I'll be headin' to Grainger or the Watertown Supply plumbing store on Monday. Store hours: 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM

Yep, Grainger is the place. I've purchased them there on a couple occasions.
