I'm looking to drop new water lines into my basement from existing lines that run to a bathroom directly above. Is it ok to reduce the new lines from 3/4 to 1/2 inch??

How do you plan to use the water in the basement? Half inch CPVC or PEX is pretty small.

1/2 inch CPVC or PEX would be fine with that.

Great. I was looking at the existing water line that runs to the above bathroom and it looks like the same deal. They reduced to 1/2. Of course I have to look at the Saniflo toilets system I am installing to see the specs for it. Thanks for the reply!
