<h1>Adding a Bath from scratch?</h1> <p align=right>by www.renovationfinder.com</p> <div align=justify><p>If a bathroom addition is on your project list, consider an above-floor plumbing system especially for a basement remodel or any other room where you don’t have accessible, below-floor plumbing. </p> <p>Above-floor plumbing is a super alternative to conventional plumbing and a great problem-solver. The technology is ideal for tricky additions and makes installing a basement bathroom a snap. With this unique plumbing system, you can skip the mess and high cost of plumbing renovation, and install a spare bath anywhere you choose even below the sewage line without pounding through concrete. The fixtures can be installed right on top of finished floors in a basement, attic, garage or even inside a closet or a spare bedroom. </p> <p>Above Floor plumbing can go where traditional plumbing can’t. You choose the location, rather than having construction dictate it. Since no digging is needed, it’s even possible to add a temporary bathroom for a short-term sick room or in-law suite. It’s a great value. It’s high quality and can handle multiple fixtures, including the sink, tub-shower and toilet. And it can work up to 12 feet below and as far as 150 feet away from a septic tank or sewer line. </p> <p>Above Floor plumbing moves it with a small pump housed inside a plastic box that is located behind the toilet (either in front of or behind the wall). Inside the box, a fast-rotating blade quickly liquefies waste and toilet paper, which is then released under pressure through small-diameter piping to the sewer or septic tank. </p> <p>There is also no special maintenance required the macerating mechanism is sealed for life. It’s a great choice for bathrooms installed in tight spaces, like underneath a stairway or inside a closet and it saves time and money opening a hole in the concrete can add three days to a bathroom addition. Without all that digging, installing a bathroom only takes about half a day. With no mess from heavy equipment digging up floors. </p></div> <p align=center>Article source: <a href="http://www.ArticlePros.com/home_care/improvement/article-84065.html">ArticlePros.com</a></p> <table align=center width=550 cellspacing=1 bgcolor=silver cellpadding=5> <tr bgcolor=antiquewhite> <td> <p align=center><b>About the author</b></p> <p align=justify>Article courtesy of <a href="http://www.renovationfinder.com">www.RenovationFinder.com</a>., the ultimate home improvement guide.
