I'm replacing a tub with a shower and plumbing the drain. I am removing the reducing tee and using a 2" drain instead of the 1.5". The drain, however is situated directly above a joist and there isn't room to place the p trap in that spot. The joist has already been notched, and I do not wish...

Can I have the pipe feeding the showerhead come from above the tile line? (maybe 4-6") The water emitting surface will be slightly below the tile line after the extension, bend, etc... Seems like if rainshowers can be plumbed through the ceiling it should be ok. Tile line is 60" above tub...

I've been searching but I haven't been able to find any glass tub doors that are hinged instead of sliding. Anyone know any companies that make these?

Tell me if this is feasible: using a double wye on a 1.5" drain pipe coming out of the wall and splitting to separate p-traps for a double sink with disposal and a p-trap to a standpipe with a water softener style airgap for a dishwasher. Would it be to code in California? The situation...
