Answer:
Several viewers are complaining about low water pressure in old houses. Old steel pipe tends to collect corrosion and calcium on the walls, enough to slowly choke off the flow of water. A look at the graphic shows what happens to water flow compared to a clean new 1/2 inch pipe. When it becomes restricted down to about 1/4 of an inch open space, that actually reduces the flow of water by 4 times, so the pressure drops off radically as the pipe slowly clogs up. By comparison if you were to go to a 3/4 inch pipe, as I often recommend for problem showers, compared to a 1/2 inch pipe, you increase the flow by 2.25 times. So pipe size makes a very big difference in water pressure
