Walk-in Tub Features

Walk-in bathtubs are designed with a range of safety features to assist seniors and people with disabilities or limited mobility. All tubs come with sealable entrance doors and low steps to enter the bathtub. Tubs come with non-slip seats so that bathers can sit, and some of these seats recline more for added comfort.

Many tubs will also come equipped with safety features such as handrails or grab bars, anti-slip flooring, anti-scald valves, and a handheld showerhead. The extra depth of the tub is both therapeutic and luxurious, and to bolster this experience, many consumers choose to add various features such as lighting, aromatherapy, massage jets, and more.

Considering the size of walk-in bathtubs, filling and draining them can take time. Another great feature offered by many manufacturers is fast-fill faucets and rapid draining. This can cut down on the time required dramatically.

Walk-in Tub Installation

Installing a walk-in bathtub can be fairly simple or can require more work, depending on the bathtub you currently have, the size of your bathroom, and the type of walk-in tub you have chosen. Generally, walk-in bathtub companies have a team of installers and technicians experienced with this product, so discuss the details of installing your tub with your Angi matches.

Usually, you can have your tub installed within the day, including clearing out your old tub and doing the necessary electric and plumbing setup. Of course, if you need to remodel the bathroom or want to build the tub into your space, then this process may take longer.

Warranty

Many of the walk-in bathtub service providers in the Angi network will offer warranties and guarantees, including from the manufacturer. Since many walk-in bathtub companies retain technicians who are experienced in installing these products, it is important to check that you don’t unknowingly void the warranty by installing the tub yourself or by using an unapproved installer.

Manufacturer warranties vary depending on the type of tub and on the brand. While some lower end tubs only come with a 1-year warranty, others will be for far longer.
