(Pictures will open to a larger size when
clicked) |
|
Size
* Classic measures 85.9 cm wide, 92.7 cm from front to back and 65.79 cm in height*Holds same amount of water as a regular bathtub
*Compact size makes more room in a bathroom and can even fit in closet
space.
*Faster to fill and drain
*Easier for a care-giver to reach for assistance |
OTHER WALK-IN BATHTUBS
Size
*Many are quite
large - often made this way to allow room for an inward swinging door.
*Takes longer to fill and longer to drain
*You may need a larger water heater
*
When you are sitting, water
that fills in front of your knees is unneeded |
Door
Swing
*Safety Bath features
an outward door swing which allows for easier entry and a more
compact bathtub
* Can
be ordered with
left hand or right hand door hinge
|
Door
Swing
* Many tubs on the
market feature
inward door swings.
Notice how difficult it is to get your legs around the inward swing door.
* Many care homes do not recommend inward swing doors because of the inability
to get someone out in an emergency. |
Ease
of Entry
* Our step is the lowest in
the industry. Although you
will step over a 11 cm door sill our tub floor is only 5cm above your
house floor.
|
Ease
of Entry
* A 17 cm step or greater is common in many other walk in bathtubs |
Door
Width 
*Safety Bath's door
opening is 45.7 cm wide |
Door
Width
