- Is an acrylic tub good for a freestanding soaker?
- Yes. Acrylic is warm to the touch, light and easy to clean, which suits a freestanding soaker. It holds heat less well than cast iron or stone resin, so a hot fill matters.
- Does this tub need a special faucet?
- A freestanding tub needs a floor-mounted filler or a wall-mounted spout that reaches the rim. Plan the plumbing before the floor is finished.
- How does it compare with a cast iron tub?
- Cast iron holds heat longer and feels more solid, but it is far heavier and needs floor support. This acrylic tub is easier to move and install.
- Will the white finish yellow or scratch?
- Glazed acrylic resists yellowing, but it can scratch and dull. Use non-abrasive cleaners and avoid scouring pads.
- What is included with the tub?
- The tub ships with its drain. The filler, overflow trim and supply lines are usually bought separately, so check before ordering.
