AcquaVapore S08WP-B-R: sitting bathtub with door and water massage
For people with reduced mobility, the AcquaVapore S08WP-B-R is a compact sitting bathtub with a side entry and an integrated whirlpool water system. The tub allows a full seated bath, with the water reaching the stomach or the chest depending on your height, complemented by eight water jets for a massage effect while bathing. Thanks to the built-in door on the right-hand side, you no longer need to step over the edge of the tub at all, which makes getting in safer and more comfortable for people with physical limitations.
The sitting tub with a side entry is especially suitable for back complaints, when stepping over a classic tub edge is difficult, and for balance problems, to reduce the risk of falling. You get in through the side door, and the entry width of 49 cm provides generous access and also allows a transfer from a wheelchair. With a capacity of around 100 litres and external dimensions of 110 cm × 68 cm × 114 cm, the S08WP-B-R model offers ample room for a relaxing seated bath.
Massage, door and interior
The side door of the S08WP-B-R opens on the right-hand side (door hinged on the right) and is designed to make getting in easier while sealing reliably at the same time. It has a special seal as well as a safety closure with a triple lock, which keeps the door shut securely and watertight. An integrated door drain ensures that no water is left behind after bathing once the door is opened. The low door threshold simplifies getting in and makes it mobility-friendly, without sacrificing the necessary water tightness.
Inside, the tub offers a seat height of about 38 cm and a seat area of around 40 cm × 50 cm (width × depth), which together with the neck rest allow a comfortable seated position. The water fills the tub body to an immersion depth of 66 cm, so that when seated it reaches the stomach or the chest. The integrated water massage system with 8 jets, of which 2 are for the calf area and 6 are fixed back jets, works with a pump output of 750 W and produces an even water massage. The incoming water is metered through a built-in single-lever mixer in brass with a chrome finish; the tap and shower set are already pre-installed. The tub body of fibreglass-reinforced acrylic is held securely and level in the bathroom by a height-adjustable stainless steel frame. Alignment variant B (against one wall) allows a space-saving installation along a single wall side. In our range of senior bathtubs you will find further low-threshold models for safe bathing in later life.

The external width of 68 centimetres allows transport through a standard doorway, so the tub reaches its installation site in one piece. For the connection at the installation site, two 1/2-inch connections for hot and cold water are required, as well as an HT-40 waste water connection; as this is a massage model, a 230 V socket nearby is additionally needed. A brief check of the existing bathroom helps to avoid surprises during installation. Our team is happy to advise you on questions about connection and installation through the Seniorbad.de online shop.
Before a tub leaves our warehouse, it is filled with water and thoroughly checked for leaks. Only after this check is it packed again for safe transport and handed over to the carrier. The scope of delivery includes the tub, shower tap, shower hose and shower head, all already pre-installed, so that assembly on site remains minimal. Delivery is by carrier with kerbside delivery. Please have a reachable telephone number ready for the advance notice, so that the delivery day can be arranged together.
