Following on from my "ring on a radial" thread, same house, next "problem"
There's a large downstairs utility room that houses a washing machine, tumble dryer and WC. So obviously it has 13A sockets - okay at the moment.
But the customer wants a shower in there. Obviously not okay which I have told them, but customer want to find a way.
So how about this:
Partition the room in two. So you enter from the corridor into a "shower room" that contains just a shower and suitably rated light fitting, plus also an extract fan as there will be no window.
From the "shower room" you pass through a second door into the "utility room" that contains the washing machine, tumble dryer and WC.
I can't see anything wrong with that, by making it into two rooms. It's no different to having an en-suite shower room in a bedroom, with a 13A socket on the wall right outside the shower room, and the two doors is no different to having a jack and jill shower room with a 13A socket immediately outside each door to the shower room.
Your thoughts please.
