      Frequently Asked Questions

      Q: Will the kit fit on my tub?

      A: Our kits fit most standard tubs, as they’re typically under 8" thick. As long as the thickness of your tub wall is under 8" thick, you can install our kits.

      Q: How long do they take to install?

      A: Kits can be installed in as quick as 2 to 3 hours. For people who want to install it themselves, we’ve included easy-to-follow instructions and have made a demonstration video. Once your kit is installed, you’ll have to wait the appropriate amount of time for the silicone to dry before filling your tub with water. 

      Q: What colours are available?

      A: Our kits are only available in white.

      Q: Can the kits be installed in metal tubs?

      A:Yes, our kits can be installed in metal tubs, as long as the tub wall is under 8" thick. 

      Q: My tub has a whirlpool system; can I install a kit in it?

      A: Yes, although you might cut the water lines when cutting into your tub. Sometimes these lines can be repaired to keep the whirlpool functioning; but if not, you may lose the function of your jets.

      Q: Where are the kits manufactured?

      A: All our kits are manufactured in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. 

      Q: How long does it take before my order ships?

      A: Orders placed before noon (MST) will ship the same day. Otherwise, we’ll send your order out within 24 hours; we want you getting into your tub safely as soon as possible. 

      Q: Will it ever leak?

      A: We offer a lifetime guarantee on the door seal of the conversion kit. They won’t leak, as long as they’re being used properly and have been installed properly, as well. 

      Q: Do I need to be in the tub while it fills up? 

      A: Yes, to get in the tub through the kit’s opening, the tub has to be empty. We recommend using our transfer bench because it allows you to sit inside the tub while it fills with only your feet in the water. This way, you can wrap up in a cozy towel or bathrobe while you wait, then lower yourself into the water when you’re ready.
