The tubs are built using a proprietary layering technology to reinforce and insulate the tubs far better than other tubs available today. The process starts with a heavy acrylic sheet with a resin and fiberglass mixture backing then a thick layer of real Canadian wood is applied to the tub which is then coated with another layer of the proprietary resin. This gives the tub better heat retention and insulation than other acrylic, gel coat, or steel tub products on the market while giving unparalleled strength and rigidity. The proprietary layered technology insulates the tub rather than absorbing heat from the water like cast iron which saves energy and water by retaining more heat and making the addition of hot water less frequently to maintain a warm bath. The width is perfect for small baths where a tub is desired and is an excellent replacement for existing tubs for remodeling purposes. In many cases, the smaller size allows for replacing an existing shower stall with a full tub to convert your bathroom to a full bath. The heavy acrylic layer provides a high gloss surface that is scratch, fade, and crack resistant providing a clean and attractive appearance through the entire long life of the tub. The vibrant surface of the acrylic tubs cleans up easily with mild soap and water, no scrubbing or harsh chemical cleaners are required. The one-piece molded skirt has a decorative step-down panel for an added classical design feature to enhance the tub appearance. This easy-to-clean nonporous acrylic surface resists the growth of mold, mildew, and mineral deposits providing a safe and hygienic bathing fixture for your family. The tub provides a generous rectangular tub opening and an integral tile flange for a leak-free installation.
