Hangzhou: How can a house with more than 80 people have five bathrooms?

The balcony was changed into a bedroom, with toilets, a toilet in the second bedroom, a toilet in the master bedroom, a toilet in the study and a toilet in the corridor.

Generally, there is a drainage pipe outside our balcony. This pipe is usually used to drain rainwater. Because rainwater has no harmful substances, it can be directly discharged into nature without any treatment.

However, the waste water produced by our toilet will contain certain pollutants and have a lot of odor. If discharged directly without treatment, it will not only affect the lives of other neighbors in the whole building, but also cause great damage to the natural environment.

If we choose to design the balcony as a laundry room, then we only need to install another pipe to discharge the wastewater from the washing machine. But if you want to change the balcony into a toilet, then you need to consider the disposal of excrement.

Law:

According to Article 13 of "Several Provisions on the Safety Management of Residential Housing Leasing in Hangzhou", the rented house should take the bedroom or living room as the minimum rental unit according to the residential design, and may not be rented after being built separately. Kitchen, balcony and other non-residential space shall not be rented for people to live in.

The third paragraph of Article 17 of the Regulations on the Safety Management of Urban Houses in Hangzhou stipulates that it is forbidden to increase the use load of the house that exceeds the design standards or norms without authorization when decorating the house. According to the residential property, adding toilets in balconies, second bedrooms and other places will increase the housing load and bring inconvenience to the neighbors downstairs, which obviously violates the corresponding regulations.
