We are building a new home in Delaware County NY .
We want to install a 72×42 drop in whirlpool bath with a 6′ casement window approx 4″ higher and 8″ away from the tub. My question is this does the window require tempered glass because of the proximity to the tub? The tub will be a drop in and be approx 19″ high.
Thanks

Best I can remember from the IRC (no code books handy) is any window within 60" of the drain needs to be tempered or saftety glazed. Looks like you need to be tempered or safety glazed.
