Top Answer (47% of 34 votes): In some cases.
Answer: No, never
Explanation: we size unit to the size of house to make sure you dont loose pressure | | RS WATER SERVICE | Answer: In some cases
Explanation: In a properly operating water softener the pressure drop is minimal. If the softener has not been properly maintained and has not regenerated as required then you will notice a significant drop in pressure. We test this by opening a hose bib (spigot) near the softener and place the softener in bypass, if there is a significant drop in pressure you will know that your softener has become clogged. In a properly operating softener I find it difficult to notice any change in pressure. | | 1 Call Well Service | Answer: Yes, always
Explanation: Technically the answer is YES, ALWAYS. Pressure loss is caused by the friction of water flowing through your pipes. Any new system, filter, softener, or just additional pipe, will cause a loss in pressure. However, this can be virtually unnoticeable, especially at typical usage flow rates (like a 3 GPM shower) if you purchase the right sized appliance. Our systems have the lowest pressure loss and highest flow rates available. We are happy to do a direct comparison with any competitive system and to provide a written performance guarantee. This is a terrific consideration. | | Purologix Water Services | | | ProMatcher | Answer: In some cases
