3 Reasons to Remove your Bathtub
- Savings
Removing a bathtub can save a lot on water bills and the general household utilities. Depending on the size of the bathtub, water consumption can be extremely high as compared to a regular shower. You’d be surprised at how much the potential savings can be!
- Ease of Access
Home with young children and the elderly will definitely benefit from this! With space at premium, removing your bathtub will create a more spacious bathroom area that’s accessible for all. Installing a bathtub may be limiting for those handicapable, as it limits their accessibility to the shower area. Young children may also find it difficult to enter the bathtub due to the height of the tub.
- Fuss-Free Cleaning
Cleaning a bathtub can get slightly awkward due to the hard-to-reach areas, such as the corners of the bathtub. Comparatively, cleaning a standing shower area is relatively easy and all corners are accessible and easy to read. Cleaning is definitely made easier without a bathtub, as there no nooks and crannies to get to.
