Default Water Shutoffs: Knob vs Lever

A minimum of 1/2" but personally I like 3/4" lines. Usually the line
coming in from the meter is 1" to 1-1/4". Why does the builder install
3/8" (or smaller lines) in the home. Because it's cheaper.

Search Google for "Porky Cutter" for more about Porky!

But, the pressure's fine in the bathroom. The next stop is the kitchen,
which is just 18 feet more pipe, in terms of distance. And, my outside hose
faucet has loads of pressure, and the longest pipe run (from the meter). All
the same size pipe.
