When climbing into the tub is the hardest part
Stepping over a tub wall and lowering yourself to the floor of the tub can feel risky. Some people give up baths altogether for that reason.
A walk in tub keeps bathing part of the routine while reducing that climb.
What walk in tub installation involves
- Measuring the alcove and the route into the home
- Removal of the existing tub and surround
- Plumbing and drain adjustments for the new unit
- Electrical connections where the model calls for them
- New wall finishes and grab bars around the tub
Details to consider for walk in tub installation
These are the questions that usually shape a walk in tub installation project in a Miami home. Thinking about them before your call makes the conversation more productive.
Understanding fill and drain time
Because you sit in the tub while it fills and drains, the speed of the faucet and drain matters. Water heater capacity also affects how warm a deep tub stays.
Door side and seat height
The door should open on the side that suits your approach. Seat height and the position of handrails should be checked against the person who will use it most.
Comparing with a curbless shower
Some households find a curbless shower with a bench meets their needs better. We are happy to talk through both options before you decide.
