To prevent a tub overflow we suggest you keep watch while your tub is filling with water. This invention relates to waste and overflow controlling devices for liquid receptacles such as a bath tubs, laundry tubs, sinks and the like. As you can see, a normal, gravity fed, tub overflow will not be able to keep up if the faucet is running faster than 2 or 3 gallons per minute. Many tub or tub/shower combination valves in use today were installed before water conservation laws were passed and are capable of allowing water to flow at rates of between 6 and 35 gallons per minute depending on the type of valve installed. Tub overflows are usually 1 1/2" diameter and are designed to normally handle 2 to 3 gallons of water per minute if the piping is clean and free of any debris or hair. Most people fill up a tub and turn off the water before entering the tub. The main purpose of the overflow drain on a tub is to have a place for the water to exit as water is displaced when someone enters the tub.
