Yes plenty of room for stackable dryer, the orange wire is for the 220v

it's never just what you first intend to do. It always turns into more work. Funny how wives never understand why it isn't just a simple fix and why aren't we painting yet. Looks good Mike. I'll be there, bathroom, in the fall, again. Probably will look very similar to your lovely rotten floor. Will I never learn?

You've earned a break tonight, Mike. Plumber did you right. Bet it feels good to be putting it together and having the demo behind you. Looks good.

You putting in a pedestal sink between shower and toilet?

Plumber redid everything. Got rid of all cast iron and put the vents in the walls instead of in the room.

Welcome to my world, with many subs.... at least when I am working. Currently it's been waiting for customers to write deposit checks so I can begin their jobs..
Yeah, wall mount makes sense, and you have enough storage so no need to shoehorn a vanity sink in there.

Nice job Mike!

Guess you better not drop any clothes when taking them out of the dryer, might get wet again?

Yes but much better than outside, down the stairs and thru the bulkhead to get the laundry. No more shoveling in order to do laundry

Freak, you should have put in one of these babies:

KOHLER, Wis.—A robotic toilet called the Numi, which retails for $6,400 and is a huge hit in China, has helped to make Kohler Co. a net exporter of its American-made plumbing products.

The Numi uses motion detectors and a remote control to open and close its seat and to flush. It also features leg-warming porcelain, a built-in stereo system and three bidet settings. All of its porcelain is made in Kohler's century-old Wisconsin factory, but most of the toilets are sold to Chinese buyers, with demand so strong that the Numi is on back order.

Ooops, sorry on back order..
