For inward opening tubs, our patented T5™ Door System forms a hydrostatic seal when compressed by latching the door. Additionally, the weight of the water inside the tub further compresses the door seal making it completely leak proof.

The outward opening door locks with 2 heavy-duty stainless steel bolts when the handle is engaged.

All door seals are guaranteed with a Lifetime Warranty.

Depending on the size and options you select, the price will vary. Our prices are much lower than other tubs advertised on TV and in magazines, which do not offer all the same safety features of our products or a true Lifetime Warranty. The price may also vary depending on if it is a simple installation, or if the installer needs to widen doorways, or install new tile, etc. You will receive a quote the day of the in-home consultation, and you can decide if you are ready to proceed with the purchase that day. The quote will include all the associated costs.

A 30% deposit is required to get the order started, and balance is due upon completion of installation. Payment terms for a Financed purchase are different, do not require a deposit,  and will start at contract signing.
