Dose the 15†side clearance requirement refer to the entire side of the toilet or just the aria beside the toilet bole?
I am installing a 5’ bathtub next to a toilet. The bath room is 5’ 10†wide. The bathtub is offset away from the toilet wall. I framed in a hollow box in the corner so I could install a standard size 1 piece fiberglass tub/shower. The toilet flange is exactly 15†from the tub but only 13 inches from the box in the corner. The 2†violation only affects the toilet in the back near the tank.
Do I have any basis or code to reference if I ask the inspector to re- consider?
