9. Fixtures
Our Economy Bathtub, allows you to choose your own
wall or deck mount fixtures.
Aquassure’s Basic System includes chrome lever-style
ADA Compliant controls with a handshower.
Aquassure Safety-Plus bathtubs come pre-installed with
premium anti-scald, high-flow valves. This includes easy-
to-use ADA-Compliant lever handles.
Our Electronic Touch Control System uses high-
flow valves controlled by a touch-pad with digital
temperature display and fingertip control of all tub
functions.
Valves
Aquassure’s Safety-Plus bathtubs include a ¾”
thermostatic temperature-control, anti-scald safety
valve. Standard bath and shower fixtures, like
Aquassure’s Basic System, use 1/2-inch valves. The
bather must adjust the hot and cold mix with every
bath. With a thermostatic valve, the temperature is
pre-set and the valve will automatically go to that
temperature again when the water is turned on.
Our ¾” thermostatic valve allows up to two and a
half times the flow of a standard system – up to 18
gallons per minute, filling your tub more quickly.
Thermostatic valves help to prevent scalding injuries
by controlling the temperature of the water filling
the tub. This is especially important for those who
have decreased sensitivity to hot and cold due to
stroke, diabetes or nerve damage.
Faster fill times with consistent temperatures for a
better, safer bathing experience!

10. Grab Bars
To help you maneuver in
and out of the bathtub
in safety and comfort,
Aquassure bathubs
include four preinstalled
ADA-Compliant grab bars
at just the right height.
Optional Extension Handle for the Door
An optional extension handle is available for the door handle.
This is recommended if the bather has poor arm and/or shoulder mobility
and/or low strength. This provides greater access and
leverage for both arms

11. Door and Seal
• Only the Aquassure bathtub comes with a

• If renovating a small room, the sliding door gives
extra clearance
Lifetime residential warranty on seal
(10-years commercial)

13. Cabinet Base
The Aquassure bathtub sits on top of a cabinet base.
• Every Aquassure bathtub includes a cabinet base
with two drawers and a cupboard.
• The cabinet raises the tub doorway to 20-inch*
seat height, making entry easier from a wheelchair
or walker.
• The predrilled frame is made of water-resistant,
laminated 5/8” wood, not particle board, so it will
not swell or warp from moisture.
• The cabinet provides handy storage space for
soaps, towels and other bathroom articles.
• Cabinet doors are spaced so that a wheeled lift
may be used to assist the bather in and out of the
bathtub, if needed.
• High-quality European hinges and durable door
slides are included.
• Hardwood veneer and bamboo upgrades are
available unstained or in a wide range of finishes
to custom match your existing décor and cabinetry.
Custom cabinets are available by special order:
• Cabinet height can be adjusted plus/minus 3-inches
– for a door entrance between 17 and 23-inches.
• Cabinet fronts can be custom-matched to the
profile of existing cabinetry
• Tub can be ordered without cabinet fronts, to allow
for on-site cabinet matching or tile front.
• Tub can be ordered without cabinet base and the
base can be custom-built on-site.

15. 3 4
Simply sit down in the doorway, as in a chair. Slide back as if you were getting
into bed. Use the handy grab bars to help slide backwards. Your legs can slide
in without any strain or bending. A little soapy water helps to slide without
friction. Your legs aren’t needed to push yourself in. Slide the door shut – it
seals by itself. You are now ready to fill the tub and enjoy.
If you can get in and out of bed, Aquassure tubs can work for you, even if you
are in a wheelchair!
Our universal-design baths are made for the full range of mobility challenges –
from those with knee issues, to those requiring assistance with a lift.
You can’t fall in an Aquassure bathtub because you are always fully supported!

16. Hydrotherapy
Massage System
• Our 7- jet hydrotherapy water jets increase the
benefits of water immersion by circulating the
water and providing increased stimulation to
the bather’s tissues.
• Surface agitation helps cleans the skin,
promoting hygienic benefits.
• Stimulation of the skin and underlying tissues
promotes tissue healing, circulation, and nerve-
tissue stimulation.
• Hydrotherapy relief from pain and stiffness,
restoring flexibility and wellness.

17. Heated Air-Jet
Massage System

circulate the water.
• 600-Watt integrated heater blows heated air
into the water, not cold air. This maintains water
temperature and prevents rapid cooling of the
bath water.
• 20-jet air system is perfect for use in assisted
living and long-term care homes.
• Promotes relaxation and eases tension.
• Air jets have dual-check-valves for hygienic
backflow prevention
• Automatic purge cycle to ensure there is no
moisture or contamination in the system.
• Allows trouble-free use of bath oils and additives.

vigorous stimulating bubble massage down to a

18. Ozone
Disinfection
System
Aquassure is pleased to offer a chemical-free, ozone
system that sanitizes the equipment without exposing
the bather to irritating chemical residues or ozone.
The O3 System will sanitize the bathtub system after
each and every use.
The O3 System minimizes the risk of cross-
contamination infections.
After a bath cycle, the O3 System automatically
activates a one-hour delay timer for the sanitizing
process. The system will start the cleaning process for
a period of 15 minutes to sanitize the jet systems.
There is a manual override if you wish to use the tub
while the disinfection system is running.
Ozone will eliminate all known disease-causing
microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, yeasts,
mould, mildew and cysts. It breaks down harmful
chemical residue and dissolves minerals.
You will not need expensive and potentially harmful
cleaning products for this disinfection system.
The system is not only safe for the environment,
but is also gentle on bathtub components.
This system is a recommended add-on to
hydrotherapy jet systems, especially in
multi-bather and facility situations.

& Seatbelt
Some bathers have difficulty
remaining in a seated position in the
bathtub due to core weakness or
paralysis. Aquassure has an optional
4-point seatbelt as well as a belt
harness that the bather can use to
secure themselves in place once in
position for bathing.

23. The Left sliding door, pictured here, is the most requested Aquassure bath door configuration:
This puts the water controls and hand shower at the bather’s right hand. Most people are
right handed, and the majority of stroke survivors are affected on their left sides.
Left vs. Right Door Bathtub
The Right sliding door, shown here, is often used in a location where other existing fixtures
and equipment may get in the way of a left door. The water controls and hand-shower is at
the bathers left-hand side.

25. Installation
Aquassure bathtubs are easy to install. The plumbing is pre-
installed on the bathtub. The tub is shipped in a 3-walled
cardboard box on a pallet and delivered to your curbside. The
cabinet base is flat packed in boxes and shipped inside the tub.
Once unpacked, the tub can be easily carried through narrow
hallways and doorways. Many competitor tubs are too wide to
fit through standard doorways, so installation is difficult when
renovating an existing home, but Aquassure tubs fit through a
25” doorway.
The cabinet base provides clearance for connection of hot and
cold water lines and the drain. The tub can easily hook-up to the
drain and water intake lines anywhere in the cabinet base area.
Our Safety Plus and Electronic Touch Control Systems include
5-foot flex hoses for added convenience.

26. Better Hygiene
Aquassure bathtubs provide full access to the body
for cleaning and better hygiene. In a shower or
walk-in bath it can be hard to reach your feet and
legs. “It’s hard to wash the important parts when
you’re sitting on them!”
Aquassure bathtubs
ensure ease of access
and bather comfort.
Hydrotherapy Benefits
Hydrostatic pressure from immersion (water pressure) has
many proven benefits:
• Promotes relaxation and wellness, calming nerves and helping
you sleep better.
• Loosens stiff joints, eases muscle tension and reduces pain to help
maintain mobility.
• Stimulates circulation in the arms and legs.
• Improves blood and lymphatic circulation.
• Stimulates the nervous system and circulation, which can calm
the heart, lungs and stomach and improve hormonal and
immune systems.
People with circulatory disorders, related to diabetes, strokes, multiple
sclerosis, Raynaud’s syndrome, bedsores and the like benefit from
increased circulation resulting from immersion in water. These benefits
can be increased by the use of air and/or water jets or manual
massage by a caregiver.
