Got a personal home plan that I'm toying with, trying to source the crowd here to figure out if it's a bad idea or not.
I'm going to gut and remodel our master bath this winter, and I'd really like to set the new tub down into the floor. House is on a well insulated crawl with a good three feet of clearance, if not more.
Tub will go parallel with joists. I'd like to cut a whole, frame in a pit of sorts, then set that tub down in there so there's only a few inches above the main subfloor.
Besides having to have a pump to get the drain water back up to the main waste line, what else do I need to think about here?
