I need to move the water supply line due to a 1st floor bath room layout change. So the first 20-30 feet of copper after the meter needs to be relocated. The supply is all copper, and this is a 1950's cape with 2 1/2 baths.
What I need help with is calculating whether or not I need to up-size the copper supply after the meter (to meet todays standards\codes). From the street to the meter is 3/4" and its the same for the main branch. Individual fixtures are all 1/2". I have not noticed any water pressure issue as is, BUT since I am moving the first 20 to 30 feet of copper right after the meter would it be wise to replace this section with it something larger?
Please see attached image and let me know if more information is needed. Thanks!
