appropriate for the PVC pipe utilized. If the
p-trap uses threaded components, they
must be easily accessible.

electrical box cannot be sealed inside a
wall cavity with no access. If the electrical
connection is placed under the unit, a
user-supplied removable wall cover will be
required to access the junction box.
