Japanese Bath Tubs & Small Bathrooms

Japanese Style Bath Tubs

 

Japan has a much longer history of bathing compared to the west. There are a number of features to the Japanese style bath tub that differs from a western bath tub. First of all they are much smaller and deeper as well as the water temperature is normally considerably hotter to include they are designed to sit with the water up to your neck rather than recline. The Japanese bath tub unlike the western tub is also not for washing yourself in. Washing is done by showering while the bath tub is reserved for soaking after you have cleaned your body by shower.
 
Since the water is typically hotter than tubs used in the West, this makes for a surprisingly relaxing therapeutic experience especially for tired aching muscles. Japan has numerous bath houses were the public can go to sooth themselves notably the Hakone hot springs located near Mount Fuji or just outside Gotemba.

As mentioned previously traditional Japanese bathing is done by washing oneself in the shower before soaking in the tub. This is a tradition in Japan however does not preclude you from washing in the bath tub.

Within our store you will find Asian designed influenced bath tubs. They are in no way Japanese style bath tubs which can be found in either an above ground configuration or a more traditional below ground configuration.

You have just purchased a home that has everything you like except the bathroom is small. This is a dilemma faced by many people. More often overlooked are corner bath tubs and some claw foot bath tubs with rim mount faucets.

Although corner bath tubs may appear to be out of the traditional since of a bathroom they do indeed lend themselves to being the answer to the small bathroom dilemma. Although most corner bath tubs are the whirlpool variety it is possible to order these tubs without the jets if you’re the type of person who does not desire jets and the electrical work the goes along with installing one of these tubs.

The corner bath tubs have in recent years have become fairly popular due to the space saving attributes they have to offer. The design is such they give you the since of spaciousness and leading to a relaxing feeling when bathing. Another positive point to these types of tubs is that many offer the spaciousness that allow for two people to bath simultaneously.

Because of there size it is not unusual that they could require upwards of 100 gallons of water to fill which is something to consider regarding your water heater capacity
