Hi,

I am in the process of plumbing a new house with PEX. I have a 1" main coming into the house.

Is there a limit of how many 1/2" fixture supply lines that I can take off of a a 3/4" branch off of the main? My total fixture units on the second floor is 23 made up of 4 sinks,2 toilets, 1 tub, 2 shower heads 1 washer, 1 dishwasher.
The distance from the 1" supply line to the furthest fixture is about 30'

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Plumber Jim,

The water company says that my pressure is 65 psi at the meter. If that's the case, can I feed all of that with a 3/4" line? I'm planning on using the 1" copper ported manifolds, 3/4" inlets, 1/2" outlets.

Thanks,

glen
