Hi,
I'm working on a bathroom remodeling project that will involve relocating a walk-in shower and adding a separate 6' tub. To do this we are expanding the bathroom to also use the floor space from the adjacent walk-in closet.
The existing floorplan is shown in the attached pic "current_layout.gif", and the planned changes are shown in "new_layout.gif".
A few things to note on the existing floorplan:
Best,
Chris
I'm working on a bathroom remodeling project that will involve relocating a walk-in shower and adding a separate 6' tub. To do this we are expanding the bathroom to also use the floor space from the adjacent walk-in closet.
The existing floorplan is shown in the attached pic "current_layout.gif", and the planned changes are shown in "new_layout.gif".
A few things to note on the existing floorplan:
- This bathroom is on the second floor of the house
- The existing DWV lines are shown in red color
- The existing shower has a 2" drain
- The main stack is 4", and the exterior wall in which it resides is studded with 2x6's. The other exterior wall (top of the picture) is 2x4 studded.
- All of the existing fixtures in this bathroom vent through the main stack
- Can the shower and tub share the same 2" drain (each with their own trap, of course)? (Note, this is shown in a green color in the new_layout.gif picture)
- What is the best way to vent the shower and tub?
- Any other potential gotchas to worry about?
Best,
Chris
