No Tap holes

Posted by Martin Williams, on
What are the implications of brochures saying the bath has no tap holes?

Most acrylic baths these days dont come with holes. It gives the fitter more flexibility on tap positions especially in confined spaces where pipework runs are an issue etc. Use a good quality hole cutter bit and triple check your measurements before you start!!

Hi Martin, The implications are that you will need to make the holes yourself. The best way to do that, without risking damage to the bath, is to mark out the holes and, rather than use a large bit, use a 4 or 5mm drill bit and make a series of holes around the edge and then "join the dots". Happy hole making! Hope this helps :) Mostafa
