The fixture designed for washing hands, face, and performing other hygiene tasks within a manufactured housing unit’s lavatory is typically smaller and lighter than its residential counterpart. These fixtures often incorporate features that accommodate the limited space and plumbing configurations common in such dwellings. Their construction emphasizes efficient water usage and durability due to the potential for movement during transportation and the typically higher usage frequency.
Selecting an appropriate lavatory unit is important for maintaining hygiene standards and optimizing space within these compact living environments. A properly chosen unit contributes to water conservation efforts, reducing utility costs. Furthermore, the design and installation of these units require adherence to specific codes and standards to ensure safety and prevent potential water damage, safeguarding the structural integrity of the dwelling.
