But the bath is steel. Are steel baths OK?? Any issues or arguments
either way?


Weight is the first thing that comes to my mind. Just fitted an Ideal
Standard "Space" shower bath, very light the packed weight was 25kg easy
to move on ones own. Steel I can envisage being considerably heavier.
Drilling tap holes will be harder as well, if you need to do that.
