I genuinely want to change my normal tub with a deep soaking one, and i also want to have jets with it, and my husband has informed me that no way can this is not possible.
I have a large family bathroom.
I am not afraid to mess around with the configuration. If a closet needs to be detached or a vanity shortened, so be it. My husband says that the floor joists won’t support such a heavy tub! Also, the plumbing would be too difficult, thankfully there is a local plumber who I have used time & time again, however he has helped me with all sorts of issues like drain line service, gas line repair & septic systems being pumped. I am confident he can handle my tub issue. I don’t genuinely know what the difference would be with a deep soaking. It still would drain water like a normal tub. I know the jets might affect the plumbing a bit? The weight of the tub is much more & it is a bit broader. I don’t suppose that should be a problem! Yes, the floor joists are angled in a way for a certain sized tub. I suppose by calling a handyman & coordinating with the local plumber, something can be done about this. I genuinely like the idea of using my normal bathtub like a sizzling tub. I want to be able to relax on colder days with a book. It would be much cheaper than a sizzling tub & I suppose I would use it more if it was inside of my home.
