    1/2" service line too small?

    OK, I'll go with 1" from meter to house. Do I need the city to get me a meter larger than 5/8" bore, like 3/4"? Thanks

    1/2" service line too small?

    Thanks Terry... working late I guess? So run a 1" line from a 5/8" - 3/4"meter? Would that be a special adapter or can it be done with off-the-shelf pieces? The City of Seattle website say their new meters allow 50-100% more flow for the same size meter as older models. Is this...

    sewage pump recommendation

    Hi all - I'm looking for a sewage pump recommendation. The job is a basement bath, stack exits mid-height on the foundation wall, so the lift needs to be 7' or so from the floor. I noticed a WaterAce 3/4 pump on clearance at Lowe's for $199. Big unit but still fits in a 30"X18" basin...
