I am installing a whirlpool tub on the 2nd floor of a residential home. Joists are 2x10. Adding 1 and 1/8 inches of subflooring yields a total height from 1st floor ceiling of 10 and 5/8 inches to work with for drainage.
There are joists under the overflow valve perpendicular to the drain path that change direction just before the drain shoe to then follow parallel to the drain path.
To minimize notching of the joists I'd like to know if the p-trap can be moved from directly under the overflow drain (normal configuration) to directly under the tub drain shoe..
The home is located in Virginia Beach, VA.
Looking forward to hearing from the forum.
