Hello everyone,
I'd like to add a second main water shutoff valve about 10' away from the existing. It's a duplex so I'd like water shutoff access on both sides. So I want to cut in above the existing water shutoff valve, which is 3/4" copper. Run 10' of 3/4" PEX to an accessible location with a valve then run 10' of 3/4" PEX back to the water line that feeds the house.
Will this additional pressure drop be noticeable in my house fixtures? Or cause any other issues?
Thanks,
Andrew
