This attractive tub comes with your choice of decorative metal claw feet to match your other hardware in your bath. Slipper 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, cast iron, 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 55" X 27" size is a convenient size in a free-standing slipper tub application allowing for ample space in the bath while giving your bath the unique design statement only a clawfoot bath can offer. The clawfoot slipper-style provides a clean and efficient use of space in your master bath allowing for an open environment unrestricted by walls and barriers. The heavy 3mm thick 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 required. 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 Imperial Slipper tub has a convenient center drain configuration, a 12" water depth, and requires a floor mounting faucet or an ALLAIRE faucet deck.
