RO/DI question

billy72 · 03/07/2009, 07:38 AM

I will like to start using RO/DI for replacement water.
I need to bring the water supply closer to my sump. They are currently on different sides of the basement.
So I will tee off a water line and run some lenghts of copper pipe.

My question is if it is better to reduce it down to 1/2" (to increase line pressure) or leave it as 3/4" ?

I would just run a 1/2" line over to where you want it.

Thanks

Just thought if it provided a little extra psi to the RO/DI it would perform better.
