    Replacing Shower With Tub
    Hello All,

    I am a newbie here, apologies in advance if I have nt provided enough details.

    I am interested in replacing my shower with a bathtub. My home is a little over a year old and I wiuld like to install a tub, preferably a round tub with jets.

    Can anyone tell me or direct me to information that details what needs to be done? To make this a little more challenging, my shower is small and a standard tub would not fit. The tub would need to be turned at a different angle in order to fit properly and the toilet may need to be moved.


    Thank you in advance for your assistance

    The main issue is going to be finding the tub that will fit your space. If by a round tub with jets you mean a whirlpool or jacuzzi type, they have a pump and blower mounted underneath that will have to be considered in the overall dimensions. Once you determine it will fit then it's simply a matter of framing it in and yes the drain and supply lines will have to be moved to the new location.
