Corner Bathtub
A Corner Tub - The Perfect Fit For Small Spaces
Bathrooms are increasingly being considered as a haven to seek some peace and quiet; a place to get away from the frenetic routine of daily life. Think about it- there's nothing as inviting as a tub filled with warm, soapy water after yet another crazy day at work. It's refreshing and relaxing yet invigorating and stimulating. Unfortunately, not everyone can afford the luxury of installing a full-sized bath tub in their bath room. Space, or rather the lack of space in most bathrooms is a huge restricting factor and trying to get the necessities as well as the luxuries to fit into a smaller bathroom can well be a designing challenge.
What!!...No Bathtub?
So here you are dreaming of long, luxurious baths but faced with the reality of a small bathroom. Trying to install a full-sized bathtub into a small bathroom is somewhat like trying to fit an elephant into a gym locker.
But you refuse to give up dreaming of soaking in a sea of bubbles and the only viable solution appears to be increasing the size of the bathroom. However, that could be easier said than done. Bathroom walls, unlike the walls of most other rooms, host a maze of hidden plumbing and wiring and trying to break down and re-build them could be a true nightmare.
A trip to an interior décor store may throw up a more practical solution- A Corner Bathtub.
Features Of A Corner Bathtub
As the name implies, corner bathtubs are especially designed to be installed in angled or curved spaces in a corner of a bathroom, usually under a window. While they are not as huge as traditional oblong bathtubs, corner bathtubs are not necessarily small. However the smaller-sized corner bathtubs are becoming increasingly more popular primarily because of their space-saving features. The drains could be on either side of the tub or in the center of the tub.Benefits Of A Corner Bathtub
