Bathhouse distance to house and boundary
Italy
National civil-law rules are only a baseline. Check the regional rules and the current municipal planning instrument before fixing the zone.
Distances and rules
A bathhouse, sauna or outdoor shower is set back from a dwelling — because of water runoff, humidity and the fact that a stove is a fire source — and a setback from the plot boundary is kept as well. The exact distances depend on the country and the building materials.
