    Toilet/tub installation measurements
    How much room do you need to install a toilet. How much room from the center of the commode to the wall. Also how much room do I need for a shower or a tub

    On the toilet, 11 1/2" from the finished wall, to the center of the drain. 15" from the side to center.
    On the tub, 15 1/2" off the back plate and 1 1/2" off the front plate to center.
    The shower drain can be any were in the base you can slope to.
    Good luck, Tom
