Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I drill tap holes into this bath?

No, this bath is not designed for drilling and doing so will compromise the structural integrity and void the warranty.

Does the bath come with taps?

No, taps are not included. You must source your own wall-mounted or freestanding bath filler separately.

What is the warranty period?

This product comes with a 5-year warranty for peace of mind.

How heavy is the bath when empty?

The bathtub weighs 37 kg.

Can I use bubble bath or bath oils?

Yes, standard bath additives are safe to use, but always rinse the tub thoroughly after use to prevent residue build-up.

Troubleshooting

Water draining slowly

Check the central waste for hair or debris build-up and clear the drain using a standard plastic snake or drain cleaner suitable for acrylic baths.

Tub feels unstable

Verify that the floor is perfectly level. Adjust the leveling feet located underneath the tub to ensure full contact with the floor.

Surface finish looks dull

Use a non-abrasive acrylic polish or a damp microfiber cloth to restore shine, ensuring no abrasive materials are used.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Symmetrical double-ended design allows for comfortable bathing from either side
  • Sophisticated bronze exterior creates an instant luxury focal point
  • Large 211-litre capacity for a deep, indulgent soak
  • Easy to maintain smooth curves and minimalist design
  • Includes essential waste and overflow hardware

Cons

  • No pre-drilled tap holes and not suitable for drilling
  • Requires professional plumbing for wall-mounted or freestanding taps
  • Heavy weight requires a sturdy, reinforced floor structure

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation

This unit is a freestanding tub. Ensure your flooring is level before installation. As there are no pre-drilled tap holes, you must plan your plumbing layout early to accommodate either a freestanding bath filler or wall-mounted fixtures.

Compatibility

  • Taps: Compatible only with freestanding floor-mounted taps or wall-mounted taps.
  • Space: Requires clear space around the perimeter to showcase the freestanding design.

Care Instructions

  • Clean regularly with a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive soap.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals or scouring pads, as these may damage the bronze finish.
  • Check the overflow and waste seals periodically to ensure there are no slow leaks.
