Good morning!

I'm replacing my sink and I have a question about the plumbing, hope you can help.

When the old one was removed I was able to add valves and resume normal operation for the rest of the house. You will see from the picture the piping coming from the main valve is doing a loop before it goes into the rest of the house. I was planning to simplify this but unsure if this is actually needed (as in reducing water pressure, etc.). Would you mind looking at the photo and telling me if this arch can be removed? I would do a straight line with a tee to feed the internal and external taps.

Much appreciated.
