Bath
A bath can be one of the most important areas in any bathroom. Not only does
it offer a place to wash and cleanse, but it also provides an area to relax
and soothe aching muscles. That’s why, when buying a bath,
you should take your time to consider all the options available to you.
If luxury is what you look for in a bath then the Victoria and Albert range
is definitely the one for you. These freestanding
baths come in contempory or traditional designs and create a focal point
for any bathroom. A great example of their contempory designs is the White
Ella Quarrycast Bath, which is available with two or no tapholes. This is
extremely popular and it is not difficult to see why. Its curved shape creates
unbeatable style, while the choice of feet enables a totally co-ordinated design
scheme. The feet come in a choice of black resin, wenge, beech, silver, and
white, so you know this bath will always match your needs. Its double ended
style is fun for those of us who love to share.
For a more classical bath, the White
Richmond Compact Double Ended Roll Top Bath is a bestseller. This is provided
with two centre tap holes with creates bathing fun for two people. This comes
with white, Victorian style feet and the recommended waste kit. This bath would
compliment a cottage or any traditional home.
If relaxation is what you crave, then a whirlpool bath would be the perfect
choice. Imagine, soaking in your bath after a long days work, the swirling currents
from the jets massaging away all your exhaustion. I can’t think of anything
better, can you? They have also been proven to have certain health benefits
too. It is a form of medication, called hydrotherapy, which has been practiced
since the time of the ancient Greeks. This helps to stimulate circulation without
increasing your heart rate, which causes an improvement in skin tone and reduction
of stress hormones in the blood system. It relaxes tired muscles and joints,
tones and cleanses the skin, and revitalizes the senses. The pressure of the
water causes your body to release Endorphins, which are ‘feel good’
hormones, allowing your troubles to float away.
These baths are available in many sizes, styles, and come with different amounts
of jets. The Saninova Whirlpool Baths have a fantastic range to suit all budgets.
Their Silver Line Baths are excellent value for money, while they still provide
you with optimum performance. They come with six Power Maxx Jets for more flexible
and focussed massage of the skin and muscles. It also has five Micro Back Jets
which help to relieve back aches and stimulate circulation.
Why not really spoil yourself and purchase the Platinum
Line 21 Jet Whirlpool bath? These baths have the same as the Silver Line
Bath with a few added extras for super indulgence. For example, it also comes
with ten bottom air spa jets, where a heated blower feeds warm air through the
jets, and chromotherapy lights with automatic disinfectant cleaning system after
drainage. These chromotherapy lights use restricted spectrum coloured lights
to ease ailments.
Do you want a shower enclosure and a bath but have not got the space to have
both? Then why not incorporate the two and have a showerbath? These have been
specially designed for this reason and are easily affordable. The Niagara Sanelle
Showerbath is a firm favourite. These baths curve outwards at one end providing
a spacious showering area, which is enclosed with a pivot door and bath screen,
creating the illusion of a shower enclosure. The bath itself is minimalist and
deep, providing luxurious immersion bathing. The Niagara Sanelle Showerbath
also comes with the main bath panel.
Got more space than you know what to do with? Then the Opulent Massage Tub
is the one for you. A soak in one of these baths leaves you feeling that you
have had a visit to a health spa and they have enough gadgets to keep everyone
amused. These baths are designed for comfort. The underwater light makes you
glow as the multi jet whirlpool system and bubble bathing ease your aching muscles.
Longer bathing is a must in these baths as they come with a luxurious pillow
and a heater pump to maintain water temperature. The FM radio will keep you
entertained, which also comes with an optional CD cable. You can control all
these features with the computerised control which is included. The taps and
multi function shower attachment create no need for a separate shower enclosure.
After bathing switch on the Ozone sterilisation unit so you know that your bath
is always fresh and inviting. This bath is designed for two people for twice
the fun and is supported with extra strong cradle feet.
