Because the tub has a flat bottom, ensure your floor is perfectly level. Use a long spirit level. For acrylic models, create a mortar bed (a mixture of sand and cement) to set the tub into. This prevents flexing and creaking. For stone resin, a foam pad or mortar is also recommended.
Because the tub holds roughly 40 gallons of water (320 lbs) plus a bather (up to 250 lbs), ensure your subfloor can support over 600 lbs static load. Reinforce with ¾-inch plywood. Ashhbritt101 Bathtub 22
Ashhbritt101 Bathtub 22 is best for homeowners renovating master bathrooms who prioritize a stylish freestanding look and deep-soak comfort without moving into high-end cast-iron or stone tub price ranges. It suits couples, frequent bathers, and design-focused buyers who want a focal piece.
The Ashhbritt101 Bathtub 22 typically uses a floor-mounted drain. You must have rough-in plumbing ready. Install the P-trap and drain pipe before setting the tub. Use a flexible coupling if your drain pipe doesn’t perfectly align with the tub’s base. ✔ Unbeatable 22-inch soaking depth
Installing the Ashhbritt101 Bathtub 22 is not a casual weekend project, but a determined DIYer with plumbing experience can manage it. Here is a step-by-step approach.
The standout element of the Ashhbritt101 Bathtub 22 is its 22-inch depth. Standard bathtubs typically have a soaking depth of 14 to 16 inches. By pushing the depth to 22 inches, this tub offers a truly immersive experience. When you sit in this tub, the water level can easily reach the shoulders of an average adult (5’8” to 6’0”) without overflowing. ✔ Modern, timeless silhouette
This deep-soak design is a response to the modern wellness movement. In an era where people are converting their bathrooms into home spas, the Ashhbritt101 provides a therapeutic benefit. The greater depth allows for full-body immersion, which can help:
Once the tub is positioned and connected, run a bead of clear or white silicone caulk around the base where it meets the floor. Fill the tub with water immediately after caulking (the weight will compress the tub into the caulk for a perfect seal).
