Want this question answered?
If you have water pressure and wish to maintain it, do not cause flow in the line, which will reduce pressure due to friction. To keep pressure up, reduce friction by increasing the line size or eliminating some other restriction. To maintain water pressure in the line, it might have a pressure transmitter and Booster pump to maintain the set Pressure in the network & I disagree the above answer to maintain the pressure we shouldn't increase the line size by reducing the line size we can increase/Maintain the pressure to overcome the losses in the Network
To correct the pressure in water pipes, you can adjust the pressure regulator valve. Locate the pressure regulator valve, which is typically found near the main water line or near the water meter. Using a wrench, turn the adjusting screw clockwise to increase the pressure or counterclockwise to decrease it. Be cautious not to exceed the maximum recommended pressure for your plumbing system.
Sounds like your main line coming in is small if it's 1/2 inch stepping it up to 3/4 coming in then down to 1/2 inch would increase your pressure
No. Increasing the size of the water supply will only increase the volume of water not the pressure. If you only want more pressure in your shower you could just change your shower head to a water saver one. That will decrease the volume of water while increasing the pressure. But if you want more pressure over all that won't work. You would need to turn up your pressure switch, if you have a well. If you have city water than you don't have a pressure switch and you would need to get a well tank w/ pressure switch installed by a professional. Good Luck!
yes but not the volume
Pressure certainly does increase in a water line going down hill. This is because the weight of the water pulls it.

No, it will decrease the pressure. The higher you push the water the more pressure it takes to get it there, therefore less pressure at the tip. Putting in a larger supply line, will not only give you more water but less friction loss in the line and more pressure at the tip. A booster pump will also give more pressure.
Install a booster pump. There are many pumps available on-line. Installing a booster pump to your RO filter system will both increase the quality of your filtered water and increase the amount of water your RO will make in a given time period. Search RO booster pump on-line and you will locate many suppliers.

To maintain the pressure of the water line it serves.
Sorry; there is no line between gravity and no gravity. Gravity is everywhere.
yes but not the volume
bec. of the gravity.
