(Construction.IndustryNews247.Com, June 03, 2015 ) St Paul, MN -- A regular bathroom with a step-in bathtub and traditional format can render it hard for aging or physically disabled people. With the rising number of retired people who prefer to reside in their own home as opposed to in an assisted living building comes the need for upgraded accessibility and movability in the bathroom. If senior care centers can have walk in tubs and wheel-in showers, then why not homes?
Walk-in bathtubs are equipped with an entry door to give the user access without having to step over the side to get in. When closed the door seals snugly to keep water from leaking out. Walk in tubs can be emptied fairly quickly for comfort or emergency exit. Walk in bathtubs must be expertly installed to provide effective functionality and safety.
Collin Dickey, owner of HandyPro Handyman Service (http://homemodificationstpaul.blogspot.com), offers ADA compliant senior home redesign employing universal design strategies including walk-in tubs and barrier free showers. Walk in tubs provide numerous conveniences in addition to their safe entry development. Walk-in tubs make bathing easier for people with mobility issues with features like slip protection, grab bars and comfortable seating. Walk in tubs can come with a number of bonus components such as bubble jets and flexible shower heads. A walk in bathtub will add value to a home when is located in a retirement district.
There could be several drawbacks to walk in bathtubs however the pros surpass the cons. The user has to get into the tub then close door before filling it with water so it can be a little cold as they wait for it to fill up. As a result of their large size the homeowner could need to get a larger capacity water heater installed. Waiting for the bath tub to drain before exiting is another issue.
Walk-in bathtub companies have made a few upgrades to remedy these difficulties with better temperature controls, quick-fill faucets and fast draining; on the other hand, this innovation can add to the price of installing a walk in bathtub. Walk-in bathtubs are available in a number of models to suit different bathroom sizes and configurations. For instance, a smaller bathroom might necessitate a walk in tub with a door that opens inward.
