I'm installing a cast iron tub and am wondering about the thickness of the ledger. The lip of the tub that rests on it is very narrow. I think that the curvature of the tub would interfere with the thickness of a 2X4. Any suggestions for what size to use?
Also, my tub has feet that it rests on. The ledger board is really for extra support, but the weight of the tub rests more on its feet and not so much on the ledger? Is that right? The tub's instruction manual advises against the use of the ledger, but I've heard otherwise from many people.
Any tips you have would be welcome. Thanks.
