Great! Thanks again for all your help.

Cutting the sub floor where that particular part of the pipe isn't difficult, I do see an issue for me of reinstalling the subfloor as I would not have access to the next floor truss on one side.

Is there a maximum length allowed for the distance between the drain fixture and the P trap?

i realized the i will be about 5 inches higher the subfloor once the base is of the platform is tiled.

Yes, IPC 1002.1 says that the fixture outlet to the trap weir (height of water within the trap when it is full) is to be at most 24" vertically. Horizontally, it's maximum 30" center to center between the fixture outlet and the trap inlet.


Cheers, Wayne

Thank you!
I should be ok but i will get some better measurements to confirm.

I still need to research how I'm going to accomplish this raised wet room idea, but that might be a topic for a different thread or possibly a different forum.
