While you guys are offering such good advice. I have another one for you.
I have copper pipe through the house. (real OLD house but all the iron was replaced) but unfortunately the service from the street is only 3/4 copper. The riser in the house is 3/4, except in some of the older walls where it's
1/2".My wife complains when washing/rinsing dishes that the pressure drops too much if simultaneous flushes or washing machine is running when rinsing dishes.
Normal residual pressure on street mains is in the 45-50# PSI range.
Do they sell a homeowner version of a inline jockey pump that would jump the pressure a few pounds when a flow was detected?
As a retired firefighter, I know you can't pump more than what the main can provide. But even a couple of PSI gain might make the wife happy.
And as you guys must know...."If momma is happy, EVERYONE is happy".
thanks again.
