When renovating your bathroom, choosing a walk-in bathtub can offer numerous advantages for any household. Designed to enhance safety and accessibility, walk-in tubs come in various shapes and sizes to match your bathroom and personal needs.
Typically, these tubs fit into the space of a standard tub with minimal modifications, but professional installation is recommended. The experts at Pacific Bath Company specialize in installing KOHLER walk-in tubs, ensuring a perfect fit that aligns with your preferences and ADA guidelines for seniors and those with disabilities. With their team of bathroom professionals, you can trust that your walk-in tub installation will be handled expertly.
If you’re considering a walk-in tub for safer and more convenient bathing at home, we’re here to help you explore this excellent option. Here’s what you need to know about walk-in bathtubs to guide your decision.
Enduring Advantages of KOHLER Walk-In Baths
There’s no doubt that safer bathing benefits everyone, especially the elderly, handicapped, and those with low mobility. Here are some incredible advantages of creating a more accessible bathroom:
Accessibility: Walk-in tubs allow almost anyone to enter and exit the bathtub safely without the risk of slipping and falling over a ledge. These tubs have built-in doors that make access easy.
Safety: For those needing a safer way to enter their tub, a walk-in tub ensures the safest entry possible. These tubs are ideal for anyone who finds it challenging to use a standard tub.
Durability: Each tub provided by Pacific Bath Company is American-made with high-quality, long-lasting materials.
Independence: If you or someone in your household has been unable to use the bathtub independently due to mobility issues, a walk-in tub can be a life-changing feature that restores the ability to bathe alone.
Comfort: Walk-in tubs offer luxurious comfort with custom-fit seating, grab bars, controls, and other features designed to keep you as safe as possible while bathing.
Varieties of Walk-In Tubs
Walk-in tub designs have significantly evolved over the past decade, offering a wide range of options for a personalized remodel. Here are some of the most popular types homeowners can select:
Soaker Tub: Soaker tubs have deeper dimensions than standard walk-in tubs, allowing for full-body immersion. These tubs are perfect for those who enjoy relaxing after a long day or soaking in a warm bath post-workout.
Spa Tub: For a jacuzzi-like experience at home, spa tubs are an excellent choice. They are popular in walk-in tub remodels, featuring jets, colored lights, and other amenities for a more luxurious and soothing bath.
Wheelchair Accessible: Wheelchair-accessible walk-in tubs are ideal for individuals with disabilities, allowing them to roll their wheelchair directly into the tub. These tubs are a valuable upgrade for enhancing home accessibility.
Bariatric Walk-In Tubs: Bariatric tubs are specifically designed for individuals weighing over 300 lbs, ensuring a safer and more comfortable bathing experience. While most walk-in baths support weights under 300 lbs, these tubs can accommodate up to 600 lbs.
