I'm trying to do the following sump using pressure locked baffles: http://www.wetwebmedia.com/ca/volume_3/cav3i1/Baffles/bafflesart.htm

it requires some Marine/Outdoor EPDM foam rubber. Anyone came across that in Ottawa? i went to home depot and Rona and the only EDPM foam i saw was for door/windows. Did not look like the one he is using on the baffles and not sure it will seal water

any insight?

Home Depot, in the plumbing section. They now carry a new type of pipe insulation it's actually EPDM rubber, and has  a sticky strip along one edge that you could trim to the length you need. It's about $8 for a 6 foot length.

Thanks a lot, i looked in the insulation section. I'll drop in the pumbling section on my next trip

i think it's called hydroform/ hydrogaskets..... it's located off of innes rd on newmarket, any and all kinds of rubber.

Did you ever manage to find the EPDM foam?  I'm looking for some to do the pressure locking baffles as well.
