5. Allow space for safety
6. Check local building codes for minimum requirements needed for the bath.
Components of Baths
Bathroom sinks/lavatories/wash basins
1. Wall-hung: has open space beneath sink, can make room appear roomier
2. Pedestal: supported by a freestanding base, often artfully shaped or appears as sculpture
3. Inset sink: set into a countertop, cabinet below adds storage
4. Above counter: looks like a decorative washbowl set on a counter. Plumbing is below.
Toilet/water closet
1. Can be mounted on wall or floor
2. Ultra low flush (ULF) toilets may be required by local building codes, use no more than 1.6
gallons as compared to the older models which use up to 5 gallons.
Showers
1. Tub showers: bathtub with a shower head above that may be in a fixed position on wall,
adjustable, or handheld. Some showers may have multiple heads at various levels.
2. Stall shower: walk-in with a door
