Looking at fitting the bath below. It will be going where the previous bath was which was p shape with a sliding enclosed screen fitted adding approx 20kgs to the weight of the bath. The bath was sat on a timber support on three sides as well as the 4 supporting feet below.
This bath is 1500mm so it will be freestanding. There's a joist running against the back wall the length of the bath and another just outside the outer edge of the bath but they both run parallel to the bath.
Floor is in good condition, osb boards and I will be fitting laminate on top of this.
The bath is acrylic and with the frame weighs 40kg empty. The frame has three feet on each end and the frame sits on the floor below these feet.
Would or should I need any floor reinforcement to take this bath, thinking about it with water and a person in, it will be on the first floor.
