It’s time to consider upgrading your home to accommodate your mobility as you age. After all, you want to stay in your home. If you are not sure if a standard walk in tub is the best choice for you, consider a compact walk in tub. Compact walk in tubs offer all the benefits of a larger tub, but offer flexibility with their size. How could you benefit from a compact walk in tub?
It Fits in Any Bathroom
The Cube Walk In Bathtub by Independent Home is compact and cube shaped. That means it can fit in a space as small as a shower stall. Whether you have a large bathroom or a small bathroom, this tub offers you versatility. Replace your shower stall with a Cube tub in a small and compact bathroom. In a large bathroom you may be able to add a cube tub to the existing space while retaining the original tub for others!
There’s Room for a Shower or Regular Tub
To reiterate the point, the compact Cube walk in tub is small enough that you may be able to install one in the space while retaining a separate standard tub or shower. This way you make all members of the family safe and happy.
It Uses Less Water
A compact walk in tub will use less water than a standard walk in tub. This means you can retain a smaller water heater and tank, as well as save on your water bill. This is a win win situation for all individuals who want the luxury of a walk in tub while sticking to a tight budget. This tub still offers hydrotherapy jets and other luxurious features, it is all just compacted into a smaller space!
Why Use a Walk-In Tub?
Whether we like it or not, there comes a point where doing everyday tasks can become difficult. For many people this becomes an issue as we age. Your mobility lessens, and all of a sudden doing simple tasks that you took for granted in the past becomes very difficult.
The bathtub is one of the most dangerous places in the home if your mobility is limited. Lifting your leg over the side of a tub is setting yourself up to lose your balance and fall, and even if you get into the tub, getting up after sitting so low to the floor may pose too difficult. If you intend on staying in your home as long as you possibly can, it may be time to consider upgrading your bathroom for the future. There are many bathtubs for elderly people that have many benefits.
Safety – Walk in tubs are very safe. They offer grab bars for easier sitting and standing as well as added balance. They also come with slip resistant floors to help keep users from slipping and falling.
Easy to Get Into – Walk in tubs have a low lip entry making them very easy to step in and out of. The door handle is easy to use, even for people with arthritis. The safety grab bars also help aid the user with balance to ensure that you can comfortably navigate your walk in tub.
Added Therapy Options – Walk in tubs come with added therapy options if you want them. These include hydrotherapy jets, chromotherapy lights, and aromatherapy scents for added benefits from bathing.
Comfort – Walk in tubs are comfortable. While sitting in a standard seated position you can relax knowing that you will be able to get up easily when you are done. Added jets can also aid in comfort. It is like having a spa in your very own home!
Peace of Mind – Because walk in tubs and walk in showers are safe and easy to use, you and your loved ones will have peace of mind knowing that you are safe and comfortable in your home. A good tub will last you a lifetime and will remain beneficial to you as you age. This makes a walk in tub a great investment in your future.
