I'm adding a new master suite over my garage. Basically the entire house was plumbed branching off a single half inch copper line. (Currently 2.5 bathrooms). I have a well with an 86 gallon pressure tank in my basement. The pressure is fine when only one or two fixtures are being used, but drops rapidly as more fixtures are used because of the half inch bottleneck.
There is no easy way to resolve this without re plumbing the entire house.
My question is: Would adding a second 86 gallon pressure tank right next to my new master bathroom alleviate some of this? I plan on having a dedicated hot water heater for the master bath as well.
