Why is walk-in tub different in North Coastal San Diego?
Oceanside, Carlsbad, and Encinitas walk-in tub installs are less common than curbless tile showers, but we still see them in single-level retirement homes. The 20-amp GFCI circuit is on a permit, the new valve is on a rough-in inspection, and the new tile surround is coordinated with the rest of the bath. HOA architectural review sometimes applies, so the design package includes the tub spec sheet for submittal.
