If your existing water pressure is very low, would it be better to purchase the 2.0 or the 2.5 for better (higher) pressure output? Thanks

I am nowhere close to a plumbing expert, I know just enough to wrap the threads with silicone tape and never overtighten anything with a wrench. But I would think you'd want the 2.0. we have average water pressure, and the 2.5 burns through our hot water in less than one girl-shower.

I had no need to do that. But, u might want to consider an adapter size to fit? Half an inch diameter seems to me would be sufficient with the water pressure I have. Hope this helps.

The 0-30 bayou classic should work....but the pressure will be the same for all. Should get separate valves for each thing so you can control individually.

If your home runs on LP it is already pressure reduced to a lower pressure than tank pressure. You may still need a regulator to drop the pressure further but you would not need the 5HPR-40.

Flow rate depends on water pressure: at 1.5 kg/cm2 you get about 6 lt/min; at 8.5 kg/cm2 you get about 19 lt/min (it is recommendable to have a water pressure gauge installed.) Hope this will help you.

My apartment has terrible water pressure as well, and without this shower head it was little more than a trickle. The original shower head didn't project water at all, it just ran more like a faucet. Once I installed this head the difference was dramatic and it will easily spray all the way to the back of the tub and beyond if you're not careful. It's still not as satisfying as a shower with normal/high water pressure, but it's worth it's weight in gold if that's not a possibility. I would recommend it!

any pressure sw will work. but it is better if the fittings or connections are in the same location. this will make the change over simple & not require extra work or fittings.

I don't think water pressure has much to do with this unit, I am very happy with mine, it is more with pressure in the house, and I know water pressure is an issue in my house.

Sounds like you would need an adopter, Please try to be sure that the adopter can be used at the highest pressure possible by the pressure washer.

Look at Shurflo website. There is no difference in GPM or pressure setting. Have no idea why there's two different model numbers, but you could ask Shurflo. They should be interchangeable.

It's difficult for me compare. In our previous house water pressure was quite low and water flow from the filter faucet was slow. Now, I've decided to buy system with a booster pump to be on a safe side. I have no regrets. Even though water pressure looks higher.

I bought the 25' to use for my patio plants.....I barely turn it on and get a nice shower for my plants..It is my opinion that you should not use much pressure. I received a 50' hose for Christmas to use in my front yard...do not plan on using much pressure..

It's more the filter housing that handles the pressure. as far as the filter goes 100 psi wont hurt it, but RO filters are more effective at 60 or so. 100 psi is excessive and hard on the rest of your plumbing, you might consider installing a regulator. IMHO...

I am never owned the 2.0 but I known those who have, and they all preferred mine, which was the 1.0. Hope this helps.

if you get the 1 1/2 to 2 your 2 will go on the OD of the valve . If you get the other it will go on the inside. Im sure both will work. I would go the bigger size so the water is not necking down when it goes through the valve

The 7000 valve has a higher flow rate (35 gpm peak) over the 5600 valve (26 gpm peak), but keep in mind this is the valve alone. What size softener tank do you need? Keep in mind the most limiting part of your water softener is going to be the media bed. If you get a small or medium size softener, I would recommend the 5600sxt. If you get a large softener and need the higher flow, then I would recommend the 7000sxt. I hope this helps and if you have any questions (need help sizing?) and would like to speak to a real person, give me a call.Will 623.224.9012ABC Water Equipment The 7000 valve has a higher flow rate (35 gpm peak) over the 5600 valve (26 gpm peak), but keep in mind this is the valve alone.

What you want to get is the Delta 75152 shower head!!! I have low water pressure and this is the only one I found that gives you a strong water pressure.
