Small Bathtubs

Found a cool article on another plumbing site about small bath tubs. Check it out when you get a chance. For those of you who don't know, the standard bath tub is 5 feet long. If your bathroom is smaller than 5 feet in width, you are in trouble if you want a bathtub. So somewhere in human history someone came up with the idea of making bathtubs that were smaller than 5 feet so that people with smaller bathrooms could also enjoy a bath from time to time. When this happened, the small bathtub industry was born. Now there are all sorts of small bathtubs to choose from. There are things that are known as japanese soaking tubs, there are small corner bathtubs, there are clawfoot bathtubs, just to name a few. Yup creative people have come up with all sorts of solutions to this problem and now people all over the world are able to enjoy a nice warm bath, even if they don't own a larger bathroom. The article linked to above is a nice breakdown and contains lots of different information on these types of bathtubs. I would highly recommend you reading it especially if you have a small bathroom. If you are a plumber who also does remodeling you should definitely familiarize yourself with some of the potential options of things that you could sell to a client when they are looking to do a bathroom renovation.
