ᐅ Is a 136 cm width too narrow for a restroom with a toilet and a urinal?

I looked at the shell construction and found it tight. Everything is tight at the shell stage

When the interior finishing is complete, it will feel larger due to the light-colored walls; in fact, however, it is narrower!

I assume this is only a temporary shower on the ground floor? If so, maybe an 80cm (32 inch) shower would be enough; this would save you 10cm (4 inches), bringing it to 1.46 m (4 ft 9 ½ in). It will still be a bit tight, as a toilet usually requires about 80cm (32 inches) including the wall frame installation, but it would feel airier than with the 90cm (36 inch) shower tray. I also can’t imagine that using a urinal would cause splashing, especially since the distance the warm liquid has to travel is shorter.

If so, maybe an 80cm (31.5 inches) shower would be enough; that would gain you 10cm (4 inches), bringing the width to 1.46m (4 feet 9.5 inches). It would still be a bit tight, as a toilet requires about 80cm (31.5 inches) including the wall-hung installation, but it would feel more spacious than with the 90cm (35.5 inches) shower tray. Also, I can’t imagine there would be any splashing when using a urinal, especially since the distance the warm liquid has to travel is shorter.

Yes, the shower is a backup option. There is another one in the basement as well... got a better price when buying three together.

So, your suggestion is to use an 80cm by 80cm (31.5 inches by 31.5 inches) shower and keep the urinal? Is that correct?

Hello

I would also solve it the way Bauexperte suggested.
To optimize it a bit more, for a shower that is used less frequently, I would go with 75 x 90 cm (30 x 35 inches) and install the fixtures on the 75 cm (30 inches) side.

Possibly also consider leaving out the third shower.

My suggestion is that only you can decide; it’s your house! However, if the urinal is important to you, I would definitely reduce the size of the shower on the ground floor.

On the other hand, you now mention having three showers – then *I* personally wouldn’t hesitate and would remove the ground floor shower altogether. That way, your problem wouldn’t even arise.

I've never sat on one of those before. I don't even know which way you're supposed to sit on it or if you need to pull your pants down or if just opening the zipper is enough.

I need to check whether they are included in our planning.

You can't either, since you stand in front of it (similar to a pub, but nicer and with a lid)
