Which of the following is false regarding the placement of plumbing fixtures?

  1. They may obstruct doors if marked

  2. Must be positioned to allow access to windows

  3. Should not block emergency exits

  4. All must work correctly without obstruction

The correct answer is: They may obstruct doors if marked

The statement that plumbing fixtures may obstruct doors if marked is false because, in practice, plumbing fixtures should be placed in a way that does not interfere with the operation of doors. Proper placement ensures functionality and safety within a space. Any obstruction can lead to hazardous situations, such as blocking access during an emergency or making everyday use of the space difficult. The other statements reflect necessary safety and operational requirements; plumbing fixtures need to be positioned to allow access to windows for ventilation and natural light. Moreover, emergency exits must remain unblocked to ensure safe evacuation if needed, and it's crucial that all fixtures operate correctly without obstruction to maintain the integrity of the plumbing system and provide ease of use.
