Hey all,
I got a burning question here. I want to re-plumb my house with PEX, I just cannot decide what sizes.
Right now I have 1" Poly from my well to my pressure tank, then from the pressure tank to my mainline is 3/4" CPVC. Finally the CPVC terminates into a 1/2" copper mainline that feeds the water heater, powder room, kitchen sink, dishwasher, washer, hose bib and full bath.
Eventually we want to add a second full bath, which would bring us to 2 1/2 baths.
I believe CPVC has the same I.D. issue that PEX has, right? All my filtering equipment is only 3/4" so it would be pointless to run 1" copper or 1" Poly, but 1" PEX would be equal to 3/4" copper, right?
Should I just use 3/4" PEX for all my main lines and then 1/2" to each fixture?
I have a 40/60 pressure switch.
Thanks,
Justin
