Hi,
I'm installing a water softener and acid neutralizer. Both have 1" connections, but my water supply is only 3/4". I wanted to run some stainless steel flex pipe between the tanks and the in/out supply to the house.
Should I go through the trouble of finding a 1" flex pipe between tanks, to help minimize pressure losses, or not worth the effort?
My local plumbing supply told me that don't carry flex stainless and suggested I plumb it with hard copper. My local Lowes and HD only have 3/4" stainless flex (which is listed as "for water heaters").
Advice appreciated.
Thanks
Theodore.
