Browse Forums Bathrooms and Laundry Re: Bath tap placement 4Sep 09, 2015 10:15 am I also feel that taps at the middle of the bath works best. This is because you can easily adjust the water temperature before having a bath (while standing up) and also during your bath without much hassle of moving around.

Will they impose onto the bath itself though (therefore reducing your ability to stretch out comfortably?!) or have I only experienced this problem because the bath I used middle taps in was small? This is our bath and its dimensions (1790mm) Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Bath tap placement 6Sep 09, 2015 5:01 pm We have a freestanding bath placed under a window and it is at least 20cm off this wall and nothing either end. I have three kids (3,8,10). I have floor bath spout with a hand held attached (great for washing little kids and hair) We can lay either end of our bath. The bath spout can be turned away if it gets in the way but so far this hasn't been an issue. I did have (previous house) a freestanding bath set within a tighter space and between three walls, in a nook. This had a tap in the middle and this was fine as well. If you do go down this path I suggest having the taps/ mixer on the wall closest to where you get in (which we had) so you don't have to lean over the bath to reach the tap (if that makes sense). Also had this set up with young kids and works fine.

I guess if the bath is big enough it's ok Hi all, My first post, we are building a house and can’t decide the layout of the lounge room. We have a large N/W facing window and are wanting to have a wood slow… 0 13920 Move your linen into laundry and access laundry from your present linen space 1 8198 that will depend on the kitchen bench depth. you'll have to specify it so it allows for both the tap and the sink 1 7597 |
