What is the difference between this and a standard walk-in tub?

It adds a whirlpool system with 12 adjustable jets, chromotherapy lighting and a powered fast drain. A standard walk-in tub usually has no jets and drains by gravity.

How does the fast drain work?

A powered drain pulls water out quickly instead of relying on gravity alone. That shortens the wait before you can open the door.

What is included in the box?

The tub, drain, handle, handshower, hose, tile flange and tub filler are included.

What material is the tub made of?

The shell is fiberglass. It is lighter than cast iron but less rigid than acrylic.

Does the drain position matter?

Yes. This model has a left-hand drain, so check your plumbing layout before buying.

Is the floor safe when wet?

It has a slip-resistant floor, a grab bar and a contoured back for support.
