37. The bathroom is an indoor (code 1 will be marked), or outdoor (code 2 will be marked) space used to ensure the body's hygiene, having special bathing facilities for this purpose such as: a bath tub (with or without shower) or only a shower and sink.
The following are also considered as a bathroom:
A room designated to this purpose, having water supply facility and sewer, but not yet fitted with bathing facilities (bath tub, shower and sink) and not used for other purposes.
A room within the dwelling where the traditional means characteristic of a certain area (steam bath) are used for body washing and not used for another purpose.
A room having special bathing facilities (shower, sink) even if this space is used primarily for another purpose (laundry).
Rooms having only a sink and used mainly for other purposes (bedroom, kitchen, laundry, etc.) will not be considered as a bath room.
When a dwelling has several bathrooms, only one of them will be recorded.
Consistency check: when the bathroom code entered is 1 (bathroom within the dwelling), it is necessary that to item 5 (water supply system) be marked with an x in the box for code 1 or code 2 and that item 7 (sewage facilities within the housing unit) also be marked with code 1 or 2.
