Hi,
I'm trying to work out the details for plumbing a new bathroom.
I carved an area out of our existing laundry room and adjoining closet to put up walls for the new bathroom. The current plumbing in that area are the washer/dryer/utility sink which is inside the new bathroom and will have to be moved outside across the room. I also want to add a new utility sink into the adjoining garage so that I can do my messy stuff in that sink and the other sink can be for laundry.
So, my question is given the current plumbing, e.g. hot and cold water for the laundry and the current utility sink... Will I be able to simply continue copper for the many new fixures off of the current lines? I'll need hot and cold for the shower, for the pedestal sink and one additional utility sink, and one cold line for the new toilet. That seems like lots of new places to run water. Is there some limit of the number of fixtures that are supported ?
I guess the usual drawbacks would come into play here, like if running the washer, you wouldn't want to take a shower. This will be a seldom used shower.
