We will be installing a freestanding tub that weighs apps.175 lbs.
It will be on a tiled concrete slab and it will have a freestanding floor mounted tub filler.
The tub dimensions are 32W x 68"l x 23'H

Should it be placed on a platform for ease of access in the event of any any future plumbing issues?
If yes-any advice on the construction of the platform would be most appreciated!
Thank you.
 
Maker is Signature Bath
Tub name is Bliss
It does not have an overflow

I can't take a photo of existing plumbing as there is a giant drop in whirlpool there now but the plumbing seems to come up thru the slab with a faux marble surround

Thank you for any help you can provide.

you are going to need to remove old tub, find the ptrap under it

move the p trap to the new tub drain location.

do NOT, let some jack leg lazy plumber leave the ptrap where it is and "just offset'' above the trap

that will be nothing but trouble a couple years from now

you will need to break concrete to move the drain
