Just Walk Right In... And Sit Right Down...
Whether you are building new or have an existing home, walk-in-tubs can fit your needs. They can be installed in new construction or fit in the space of your old bathtub.
Universal Design. Accessible Design. Call it what you will, but it boils down to using parts of your home as you age or if you are physically limited in some fashion. The Walk-In bathtub is a great example of this. As baby boomers get older, they want more convenient and safer bathing solutions. “We were happy to find a Walk-In tub that was deep enough and built strong enough to operate trouble free,” says Jerry Gerstl, owner of Renew-It.
As Easy As 1-2-3
Walk-in-tubs have a door on the tub so a bather can open a door, walk into the tub, close the tub door and fill the tub with water and soak in chest deep water while seated on a 21" high seat. The new tubs we work with can be equipped with air jet systems and or water jet systems. So a bather can just soak or receive a hydrotherapeutic massage.
“Quality construction is a major reason we began selling this tub,” Gerstl says. “Its one inch tubular steel frame prevents twisting and distortion so the style of the tub and your bathroom are never compromised. Since we specialize in providing quality tub liners, we know how important it is for a tub to not only function well, but it’s got to look great too.”
"We know research shows nearly 90%of people would prefer to stay in their homes as they age. Bathrooms can be a great challenge to aging people. Stepping in and out of a tub can be a big safety concern.When the standard bathtub becomes too difficult, walk-in-tubs provide a comfortable and safe bathing option."

Quality & Comfort
“In the past, we had customers who owned an earlier version of a walk-in tub or had friends who had one and they expressed concerns about leaking and the longevity of the door systems,” Gerstl adds. “With that in mind, when we found this product, we couldn’t wait to make it available to Madison area homeowners.”
The Renew-It Walk In tub has two features that ensure great performance including:
? The door is equipped with a double gasket (with a lifetime warranty)
? A hinge running the full length of the door, making the door very sturdy.
These particular walk-in-tubs come equipped with a Delta faucet with a slider bar for the showerhead, which can be used for a stand-up shower or as a handheld shower. The tubs also have optional heaters which can maintain the temperature of the water after its filled. Whether you are building new or have an existing home, walk-in-tubs can fit your needs. They can be installed in new construction or fit in the space of your old bathtub.
