Things to Consider When Purchasing an Accessible Bathtub
Looking for the bestAccessible Tub Glenview ILto replace your old bathtub? You can choose from several options available out there. The following list enumerates 10 considerations that you need to follow before purchasing anAccessible tub Janesville WIor elsewhere: 1. Does it fit? You need to make the right selection in terms of size. Ensure that the bathtub you’re purchasing will come through the doorways and hallways of your house. Otherwise, you need to bear the expense of having the door frames removed and reinstalled to let the bathtub get to the bathroom. 2. Tub Size There are several things that you can purchase a little bigger than the requirement but not the bathtub. Moreover, the bigger the tub is, the more water it will take and more time to fill it up and ready for a bath. The bigger the tub is the better experience it will give. 3. Seat Height Another important aspect that you need to consider is the height of the bathtub seat. There is no perfect-fit-for-all option, as it depends on the stature of the person as well as the health condition of the user. There are different heights available for accommodating people ranging from ambulatory issues to requiring a wheelchair. Moreover, seats come with either fully open or with a couple of inches of wall blocking the back edge of the seat. Fully exposed are easier to transfer on and off. 4. Tall Users For tall users, models with the option to sit upright are not ideal. Instead, lying down slide-in bathtub might work best for such users. Unless your primary intent is to soak from the waist down only, upright models aren’t ideal for tall users. 5. Weight Capacity Another important factor to decide is the weight capacity. While considering all other options, the maximum weight capacity of the bathtub should also be considered. 6. Water Retention You need to pay attention to water retention too while opting for anAccessible tub Franklin WIservice.

Drain There are two primary types of drains available to choose from. One that has a chain and a stopper combination and the other that offers a dial to turn or some push-button mechanism. 8. Time to fill The bigger bathtub you have, the more time it will take to completely fill. However, different accessibility tub manufacturer offers different water filling rates. On average, a bathtub takes anywhere between 6 to 15 minutes for filling up completely. However, the water pressure and plumbing inside your home have an important effect on the filling time. 9. High Flow Faucet SomeAccessible tub Gurnee ILoffers a high flow faucet feature. It is helpful for filling and emptying the tub quickly, in addition to featuring an enhanced drain system. The filling and draining speeds are affected by your home’s extant water pressure and piping system. 10. Water Bills A regular accessible bathtub can hold as much as 40 to 80 gallons of water. It can translate to higher monthly water bills if not used wisely. However, manyAccessible Tub Highland Park ILservices offer models with water-saving and energy-efficient ratings. ...read more
