    Love how you guys think about the location of the toilet paper, trash can, and factor in a potential make-up station. You guys keep it realistic for the people

    Another Great idea with these bathrooms for more space, is just using a pocket door, or a frosted pocket door for more lighting. It makes the bathroom seem bigger.

    I had a rental property with a horrible bathroom layout. I increased the bathroom width by 4 inches (Stole 4 inches from a living room) and went with the #1 layout. The bathroom looks 2x bigger, a lot more walking space and much brighter. These guys have great bathroom layouts and I would recommend people consider these layouts if you are remodeling a bathroom.

    It never occurred to me to relocate the tub plumbing wall in #1, closing RUclips now and going to get that done in my bathroom renovation. Great to see a channel that follows Alberta plumbing codes, thanks for creating a useful resource guys...keep it up

    Aa a plumber I just said I wouldn't put the drain that end on #1 as it's easier and better to put all pipes on one side but you guys just explain it to me why so I just learned something great.

    I have a master bath setup of #1... but the door is on the south wall in front of the toilet and im going to knock out the entire wall and expand it to almost double the size it is so I can put in a tub and where the sink is now will turn into a linen closet of sorts 👍

  • @lassaut6794
    @lassaut6794 3 года назад +2

    Trouble with #5, the door is more than likely going to skim the toilet. This is the way ive decided to rough my bathroom and it was necessary to move the toilet over 8" to defeat this issue
    Also, the likely hood of not having electrical boxes in the walls you would insert a pocket door in is slim to say the least

  • @scottjacoby2594
    @scottjacoby2594 Год назад +1

    Would #4 potentially work better as a wet room? Instead of that corner shower, put up a couple of glass partitions that don’t meet in the middle (so there’s room to walk in and out) and then put a rainfall shower head so that the shower sprays directly down instead of out to prevent the water from getting to the other parts of the bathroom.

    • @ThePlumbingGurus
      @ThePlumbingGurus  7 месяцев назад

      Most bathrooms don’t have windows. It would be a personal preference and a matter of where the bathroom is in the home. Bathrooms in windows is a bad idea in my opinion. Especially with showers. Maybe really big bathrooms away from the shower itself. But these style of bathrooms I wouldn’t recommend, but a lot of old houses will have them right in the shower or bathtub are and it’s bad news

    I want to move my toilet. Our house has a #5 layout. I want to have the toilet to the right with the vanity running horizontally between the toilet and the shower/tub. My crawl space has generous access. Would you do it? Do you think it would be worth it?

    So is it legal to have a toilet Right next to the wall? We just have 2 bathrooms in the house that aren't the best. They literally are like a seesaw with the toilets, so they both need to be remodeled.

    • @ThePlumbingGurus
      @ThePlumbingGurus  2 года назад

      Yes you can have it next to a wall. Minimum distance is 15” but more is better. And that to the centre of the toilet

    On a side note. I have a johnwood proline xe 50 gal power vent tank left over from a job 2 years ago.
    The power vent on it was too loud for the customer... so it’s been sitting in my garage since then.
    It was installed for 4 days. So the inside is probably rusty from having water in it. To not having water in it. But....
    Do you guys want it for a video? Either cut it open. Or you can go to a farm feild and try and blow it up or something. 😈.
    Have Clayton call me if you guys are interested
    It would be free. I just want to get rid of it.

    FOR THE BATHROOM ILLITERATE.
    HOW MANY BATHROOMS SHOULD BE ON ONE'S PREMISE AND SHOULD THEY BE ROUTED AWAY FROM EACH OTHER
    IF ONLY FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF DRAINAGE OBSTRUCTIONS
    IF THERE ARE @ LEAST 3 BATHROOMS AND THE BATHROOM OUTLETS (TUB, FAUCET, TOILET) UTILIZE THE SAME EXTRACTION SYSTEM & FOR ANY OR SOME REASON THAT BECOMES EXTREMELY CLOGGED OR PLUGGED (STOPPED UP) IS IT WISE TO MAINTAIN A SORT OF OUTHOUSE BATHROOM (COMPLETED WITH A TOTALLY DIFFERENT DRAINING SYSTEM MECHANISM AND DESIGN! SORTA LIKE AN EMERGENCY SERVICE BATHROOM 😐

  • @KingHarry1
    @KingHarry1 Год назад +1

    1:30 I disagree. As a carpenter in the Midwest it’s rare that I see a toilet drain on adjacent side of toilet and vanity it made venting and sweating pipe convenient and maybe it’s just me but nobody exits the shower/tub from the drain side there’s often the shower caddy and the shower head and tub spout to avoid. Great video but really disagree

    • @ThePlumbingGurus

    So in your layouts....
    your laying in your tub and your head is 20” away from the toilet Seat 🤮. You don’t think piss spray goes 20”. Lol.
    I personally push for the drain of the tub to be on the side of the toilet. So when your laying in your tub your head isn’t 20” away from the toilet seat.
    But. It’s all personal preference
    Some people like laying there head in piss spray. 😂
