AcquaVapore S08D-WP-C-R: sitting bathtub with door, whirlpool and acrylic shower screen
The AcquaVapore S08D-WP-C-R belongs to the range of low-threshold sitting bathtubs with a side entry. It combines a sitting tub with a door, an integrated water massage system with 8 jets and an acrylic shower screen in a compact corner installation. The model has been developed specifically for people who want to enjoy a relaxing bath with a massage function without having to give up safety and an easy step-in. Positioning variant C places the tub in the right-hand corner of the bathroom, with the door hinged on the right.
The sitting bathtub is particularly suitable after a stroke or other mobility events, where getting in and out of a conventional tub becomes a daily hurdle. People with a permanent mobility restriction, for example due to multiple sclerosis or Parkinson's disease, likewise benefit from the low threshold and the safe, upright sitting position in the heated water. The entry width of 49 cm makes getting into the tub comfortably possible even for people with limited mobility. As a shower bath combination with an acrylic screen, the model can also be used flexibly without completely filling the tub.
What S08D-WP-C-R offers with its massage function
The side door opens generously and allows safe entry with a low threshold. An additional safety catch combined with a triple locking mechanism ensures that the door closes tightly while the tub is being filled. The door drainage reliably removes residual water after opening, so that no puddle forms on the floor. The integrated grab handle provides additional support when stepping in and standing up.
Inside, the seating area offers a seat of about 40 cm x 50 cm with a seat height of around 38 cm. The tub body made of fibreglass-reinforced acrylic stably supports the weight of the bather, and the anatomical shaping allows an upright sitting posture. The immersion depth is 66 cm, so that the water reaches up to the stomach or chest when sitting, depending on body height. The whirlpool water system comprises 8 jets, of which 2 are for the wall area and 6 are fixed back jets that pulse through the muscles in the back area. The pump power of 750 watts ensures an even water pressure. Water consumption is around 90 to 110 litres per bath, which corresponds to the capacity of 70 to 90 litres in operating use. The acrylic shower screen also makes the tub usable as a shower. The base is a height-adjustable stainless steel frame, while the tub body is made of fibreglass-reinforced acrylic. The brass mixer tap with a polished surface and single-lever mixer is already fitted, so that hot and cold water can be regulated directly.

With an external width of 68 centimetres, the tub fits through a standard interior door. In the vast majority of cases, it can therefore be transported into the bathroom without dismantling. Before purchase, it is advisable to check the installation location and the existing connections. The tub needs hot and cold water as well as a waste water connection with a 40 millimetre diameter. As the model is fitted with an electric whirlpool system, a standard power connection (230 volts) in the immediate vicinity of the installation location is also required.
At our warehouse, every tub is filled with water and checked on a test rig before dispatch. Only then does it go into transport. Before delivery, the carrier will contact you in advance to arrange the delivery date. A phone number that can be reached during the day is therefore helpful. Delivery is kerbside delivery. If you have any questions about the installation or the connections, we are happy to help. The scope of delivery includes the bathtub, acrylic shower screen, shower mixer, shower head and shower hose.
