[QUOTE="deleted member, post: 333499, member: 816"] pressure at the main meter being the same, if you have 3/4 inch all the way to the faucet that then reduces down to 3/8 inch at said faucet, you are going to be moving more volume at the faucet head than if you ran 1/2 all the way to the same faucet. that greater flow to the faucet head will result in greater pressure felt at the same faucet. if your goal is simply to be able to purge cold water from a pipe quicker, i am not sure if your thought process is right or not. a part of me says no. it should take the same amount of time. but, accomplished with less water maybe. we need a fluid mechanics guy. caveat: i am not one. so, i could be totally wrong about this! college was a long time ago.
