Frequently Asked Questions


1) Do these tubs use more water than conventional tubs?

Yes. A walk-in tub is not normally shorter than an average bath tub, which comprises about 2 1/2 feet of water on average. Some producers say if a standard shower is 7 minutes that you use exactly the same quantity of water as a shower that is standard and you also use 7 gallons of water a minute. Most of the walk-in tubs available on the market have a 40-80 gallon capacity. The truth is, many manufacturers recommend that you have a hot water tank that fits at least 50 gallons, though some bathtubs will operate efficiently if you fill them with 40-60 gallons.

2) Is there a way to get Jacuzzi jets in my tub?

Yes. Be careful of the quantity of water and also atmosphere that comes out of the jets to be sure it is the proper number which will soothe your sore muscles and aches with a massage sensation. Jets may be positioned to target specific areas to provide for the best effects. Many Glendale customers enjoy the therapeutic effect of having jets installed in their own walk-in bathtub for an extensive array of health conditions that gain from the added relaxation.

3) What types of financing are available in California if insurance doesn't cover home modifications?

The American Elder Care Research Organization lists several other financial assistance paths to think about when looking for assistance to purchase your walk in bathtub. (1) The US Department of Agriculture helps low income and elderly residents of rural areas make house modifications to enable aging in place. The USA Rural Development program is also called the Section 504 program, the Very Low-Income Housing Repair program and the RD 504 Loan Program. The adjustments can have a walk in bathtub. There are geographic and age, income requirements to participate.

(2) For a non-Medicaid state financial assistance system for the elderly, you can check this list to see whether there are any that contain home modifications. https://www.payingforseniorcare.com/home-modifications/state-assistance-programs.html (3) Rebuilding Together, a national nonprofit that can possibly cancel the setup costs of a walk-in bathtub, can be a great resource.

4) How much do walk-in bathtubs cost in Glendale?

A walk in bath in Glendale generally ranges in price from $1,700 to over $30,000. The price depends upon whether you have it installed by our California team, what attributes you select, as well as the caliber of the product. The cost also fluctuates depending on whether you select acrylic or fiberglass tubs. Everybody differs and ensuring that a walk in bath works for somebody 's unique situation is very crucial because it's generally replacing a bathtub or bathing assembly that isn't fulfilling their needs. A superb walk in tub runs between $3,000 and $8,000 installed. Some suppliers offer a cash bonus or monthly obligations.

5) Can the shower be used still with a walk-in bathtub?

Yes. There are walkin bathtub installations that provide you with a sizable standing area for stand up showers. You can either shower sitting down or standing up. Ensure you get the correct dimensions for the walk-in bathtub so that you don't feel cramped during a standup shower. Also, another thing to keep in mind would be to ask about the faucet place, since if your faucet isn't directly against a wall, it is significantly harder to tap into your existing shower in case you wish to maintain your standing shower.

6) Will a tub like this look bad for my homeowner’s insurance in California?

Many upgraded homeowner's insurance policies protect against flooding from your pipes and appliances. Check with your Glendale homeowner's insurance to be sure it is going to cover you against this sort of damage. You may need a home alteration license from the Glendale, building department to install a bath, particularly when walls need to be removed to fit your toilet plans. Most of all, in the event you needed a license and you did not get one AND your home suffers from damage from the installed walk-in tub, your homeowner's insurance may not cover your losses. If you're planning on ever selling your Glendale home, there are plenty of buyer beware messages out there that will direct potential buyers from your house if there have been any advancements without licenses since it does affect homeowner's insurance. Buyers see their homeowners insurance as well as the licenses as protections on their investments in homes.

7) How do walk-in tubs drain?

Some systems apply a gravity only drainage system, while other makers offer power-assisted drainage systems. Normally, the drainage system in a walk-in bathtub is attached to the normal tub drain, which is threaded into a horizontal pipe called a waste shoe. The shoe is sealed using putty or a foam washer under its flange. Since a bather cannot leave the tub until all of the water is emptied, the huge difference is that manufacturing companies have attempted to reduce the waiting time since sitting there waiting for the water can leave a bather feeling chilled. Some features may cost you more, therefore it's almost always advisable to ask. Finally, get to be aware of the difference between frameless baths since frameless tubs often drain quicker than framed tubs, because they don't change the drain height of your existing bath and framed baths. Framed tubs are constructed on a steel frame as well as the base of the bath is suspended off the ground. Frameless baths are designed with an extra-strength form that does not require a steel frame and the bottom of the tub is not hung in the air.

8) Will AARP cover the cost of equipment and installation?

AARP is not a provider of insurance, but contracts with insurance companies to make coverage available to AARP members. AARP will not make health plan recommendations for individuals and doesn't cover the expense of walk in bathtubs or some well-being needs. AARP does provide coverage like other health plans and Medicare Supplement Insurance and accessibility to health care tools to members as a resource, but member advantages are provided by third parties. Check with the plans which are listed under AARP's membership services in California.

9) Can I make one of these myself?

Yes, but most people do not start from scratch, they begin with a bathtub conversion kit. There are instructions available on how to convert your existing bathtub into a walk-in bath. We recommend that you just know the best way to make use of the right tools in order that you just do not end up with a non-working bathtub. There are businesses that understand the best way to turn your handicap that is tub more along with your home accessible for less of an investment than other options. As California installers, we understand just how to direct you in the correct course, so please ask us for a consultation so we are able to help you make your home match your present needs, particularly if you have recently become disabled or are supplying an aged individual care-giving in their house or your residence.

10) Do Walk-In Bathtubs Leak?

Yes, they can leak. Consumers who purchased poorer quality fiberglass in a framed walk-in bathtub have reported that their walk in bathtub finally revealed spider breaking in the floor area and then leaked. Another common complaint from people who purchased an inferior quality tub and attempted to save cash stems from door flows. Make sure the walk in bathtub is inflexible and strong to avoid any flex that inhibits a water tight door. Moreover, during the installation process, it is highly advised that the California installer never lift the tub by the plumbing, since it can result in escapes. Also during carrying any damage that may have occurred can loosen fittings and mishandling and cause leakage. Before utilizing the walk in tub, it is significant that the bathtub is tested by the installer properly according to the instruction manual. If the bath is not installed degree together with the supporting features supplied, the water may have trouble draining correctly and may create the door to leak. Eventually, make sure you comprehend the hazards related to the positioning of your walk in bathtub, particularly alcoves, because they have specific requirements to prevent leaking.

11) What sort of guarantees are there that these tubs won’t leak and damage my Glendale house?

Consumer Affairs advocates that an owner that is initial buy a lifetime guarantee to give peace of mind to buyers about leaks. Additionally, ask if the lifetime guarantee is extended to other owners too. For most California home setups, this will probably be included for a set amount of years.

12) Do these tubs drain normally?

Yes. Sometimes, however, it is necessary to change the plumbing depending on the precise location of the drains. Installers may have to put in a fitting to the existing wastewater pipe for a walk-in tub. Present pipes may allow for slower drain times or quicker drain times.
