As you get older, it gets harder and harder to get in and out of your bathtub. The difficulty of getting in and out of a wet tub can be dangerous for older individuals and those with handicaps. If you have limited mobility, traditional bathtubs are not a great choice. Thankfully, there is an option of having a TubcuT® installed.
The TubcuT®
A TubcuT® installation is the quickest, easiest and most economical solution for converting a traditional bathtub into a walk-in shower or tub. During the process, the installer will remove a small area of the sidewall of your existing tub and replace it with a watertight insert cap. This will reduce the height of your tub sidewall by at least six inches. This allows homeowners to get into their tub easier and more safely.
When the door is closed, the user will still be able to shower as they normally did before having the cutout installed. The process to install a TubcuT® can be completed in one day.
Benefits of Walk-in and TubcuT® Bathtubs
There are many benefits converting your tub to shower in your bathroom. Those who are aging, have mobility issues or disabilities can find cut-out bathtubs to be a safe option to consider. A TubcuT® can make bathing more convenient and safer and improve your health in several ways.
- Symptom Relief- Homeowners who suffer from conditions like rheumatism, arthritis, diabetes, joint pain, fibromyalgia or general muscle pain and stiffness can find it soothing to easily get in and out of their bathtub whenever they need relief from their symptoms.
- Improve Circulation- Walk-in bathtubs can help users get relief and improve their circulation by soaking in hot water. When circulation is improved, sufferers will find they have less pain and more mobility.
- More Stress Relief and Relaxation- Nothing is more relaxing than a hot bath for most people. Users of walk-in tubs can find peace of mind while enjoying a stress relieving and relaxing experience soaking in the tub. A good walk-in tub also helps improve users’ sleep with the installation of extra features such as hydrotherapy, chromotherapy and massage features.
