You know how this happens naturally? People fill the tub to just below the the overflow, shut the water off, get in the tub, and then immediately displace the water up over the overflow. Then it drains…slowly…until it’s below the line.
If this was an image we could hear, I’d bet you any amount of money there was a gurgling sound in the background as the water slowly made it’s way down the drain.
The trick is to get in the tub before it’s done filling, then you don’t waste 10+ gallons of hot water down the overflow.
Yeah my wife does the same thing and it similarly drives me batshit lol.
Its even funnier when she’s standing there naked waiting for it to fill complaining about freezing while there is 20 gallons of hot steaming water sitting right there in front of her that, for some reason, she feels she can not sit in until its up around her neck lmao
Dude, this is a static picture lol.

My husband does this, and the way the water slowly gurgles through the overflow is just. So. Annoying.
We must rise up, those of us that get in before its full and turn it off before it hits the overflow!
