Save Space With a Round Handicap Bath Tub

Do you have a disability or care for someone who does? Is it difficult or impossible to bathe or shower in a traditional bath tub? If you or someone you care for has a hard time, or cannot, climb over the side of a bath tub, sit down or get up out of one, or stand long enough to shower, a walk in bath tub is the solution. But what if the bathroom is too small to accommodate normal size safety bath tubs? Enter the round handicap bath tub.Features of a Round Handicap Bath TubWhile there are small rectangular walk in tubs available, a round handicap bath tub is usually the smallest walk in tub on the market. This is a blessing if you've longed for a walk in tub but didn't think one would fit in your bathroom. A round design is perfect for this predicament and will solve any issues you have with traditional tubs or the problems with trying to convert a traditional bath tub into one that meets your safety and function requirements.A round handicap bath tub will help you save space in your bathroom in three ways: 1) It will open up the space; 2) It will provide access on two sides; and 3) It will give you accessibility and comfort in a smaller package.1. It will open up the space. The round shape allows for it to be installed either flush against one wall or fitted snugly into a corner. Either way, you've opened up an entire portion of the bathroom to use in other ways, or to leave open for easy maneuvering around the tub. Saving room will make it easier to get in through the outward swinging door, which might be more difficult with a rectangular model. Replacing a traditional tub with a round handicap bath tub may actually give you more bathroom space in the end.2. It will provide access on two sides. This feature is useful for two reasons. One, it allows you to move around the round handicap bath tub more easily, making the room more functional and also making it easier to clean. And two, if you or the person you care for needs assistance bathing, this all-around access will make both your lives much better. 3. It will give you accessibility and comfort in a smaller package. Despite its size, a round handicap bath tub will give you all the function and features of a larger model walk in tub. You won't sacrifice safety or comfort. The round style is still lower to the ground so you can walk in with ease. It sports a no-slip floor and safety handles. Many models come with a contoured seat with armrests and whirlpool jets for extra bathing comfort. You can bathe without hassles and have a little luxury without consuming all of your bathroom space.If you've been unsure of or completely crossed out the idea of adding a circular handicapped tub shower, you may be able to change your mind. If your bathroom is small, a round tub will open up the space, provide more access to the tub, and give you all the accessibility and comfort you expect from a walk in tub. If you need access and space, consider a round handicap bath tub for your home.
