    Question regarding PVC size when hard plumbing

    As water flows through the pipe it constantly loses pressure. If there is a bottle neck in the line the pressure drops more through the bottle neck but does not gain any pressure after passing through the bottle neck. The difference between 2" and 2.5" will be minimal due to short length of...

    Buttress leaning in while filling
