On Plumbing Fixtures

It seems necessary at this time because of competitive conditions to make a restatement of our policy as to the minimum standards for acceptability of plumbing fixtures installed in new properties accepted for insurance by the I-os Angeles office of the Federal Housing Administration. During and immediately following the war, because of a shortage of materials, we accepted, for example, a lavatory which was slightly less in size than our minimum standard of. 20"xl9'. Since these conditions no longer exist rve are notifying all oi the local supply-houses that the following minimum standards will hereafter be strictly adhered to.

1. A bathtub not less than 5' in length will be required in each property.

2. Minimum size of single kitchen sinks to be 24"x18"; when adjoining laundry tray 20"x18". Dual compartment kitchen sink 32"x18".

3. Kitchen sinks shall have acid resisting enamel.

4. Laundry tray minimum size 24'x12".

5. One lavatory 2U'x18", minimum size, will be required in each property.

6. At least five fittings shall be provided in each bathroom, including two towel bars, paper holder, soap dish and tumblerbrush holder.

The above minimum sizes are understood to be the nominat sizes known to the trade and quality shall conform to the applicable Federal specifications or Commercial Standards established for the type of fixture being considered. Vitreous china and pottery kitchen sinks are not acceptable.
