I would like to get a whirlpool tub installed and don't know if I have the right kind of space. My existing tub (60x32 cast iron) is recessed. It is configured like this along one wall: 30" floor to ceiling linen closet--->bath/shower fixtures--->tub--->exterior wall.
The thing is, I really want the tub in a tile enclosure and not an apron (I know an apron would work well for accesibility). Can the pump be installed at the bottom of the linen closet? And what about an electric outlet in the same linen closet?
Can anyone think of a configuration that would suit my asthetic needs (love the tile!)?
