Get Yourself A Small Soaking Bathtub
What’s the difference between a small size bathtub and a soaking tub? Well length and width come to mind. . .but the experience is really the key. Soaking tubs are generally shorter and taller than the traditional 5 foot long tub. A soaking tub is deep, allowing the average person to sit comfortably while being submerged up to the chest or neck in the bath water. Small soaking tubs are a throw back to the days when people bathed in a cut off upright barrel filled with water and a stool inside for sitting.
Today people love to “soak”, they love to linger in the warm water and it has become a form of relaxation for most. Little children love bath time to play with their little boats or water toys, lovers enjoy romantic evenings in a bubble bath by candle light and even a buy mom can find time once the little ones are put to bed, to soak in a warm hot tub in complete silence! No longer a utilitarian appliance just for washing, small soaking bathtubs are a relaxing retreat from the outside world that we all lavish.
Similar to a hot tub (or barrel), small soaking bathtubs can fit into any size bathroom, even small bathrooms. Because there is no need for length, a soaking tub can fit nicely into a tiny bathroom, only taking up little space. The beauty is in the depth of the water that can be accomplished in these tubs. Some tubs such as walk in tubs come with a door for easy entrance while others are positioned on a pedestal so the tub can be sunk into it and allow for up to 3 feet of depth. Walk in tubs have a slight disadvantage because you have to be in the tub to fill it and cannot open the door until it is empty again.
There are many styles and colors of small soaking bathtubs, making them a great choice or everyone. Small soaking bathtubs do come in many sizes and shapes as well. Made of fiberglass, the tub can be made to accommodate any style bathroom. They are a great option for those who once thought they had to settle for a shower stall and no tub. Shower heads can be affixed to the wall above the tub to allow for the convenience of a shower, but still having the ability to take a bath when possible.
Some people like the small bathtub shower to shower off after a long bath to wash the soapy residue off their bodies. The shower head and bathtub designed is a perfect combination for that. Some tubs come with water jets for extra relaxation, but careful consideration must be put into the size of the tub when choosing to add them. If the tub is too small the pressure from the jets will propel the water upwards causing water overflow.
A bathtub is a personal choice and with the many options available, everyone should be able to enjoy a relaxing bath in their own home. With custom designed extra small bathtubs and man options for small bathrooms, such as small soaking bathtubs, anything is possible.
