his $20
tester and read it.
He probably wanted a separate GFCI in each bathroom, each fed by its
own branch circuit and breaker. Daisy-chaining one bathroom to the
other would not fulfill that goal. I don't have the code cite handy,
but I believe that was code even before 1999.
Another one was, tub drain slow, compared with what? It drains in
less time
than it takes to fill.
Probably compared with what his experience tells him is a reasonable
time for a tub to empty if the drain pipe is pitched properly and free
of obstructions.
I spend a couple of hours sighting the code sections that apply and
send it
back.
What was your finding about the GFCI issue?
