Don't spend money on a trip to the spa! A home bath spa allows you to relax and escape at home. Learn how to set one up yourself with these tips and ideas.
Most home bath spas state that they will fit any standard tub. A standard bathtub is five foot in length and usually a wall-to-wall model. The depth of a standard tub is approximately 14" to 17". The quality and price of a standard tub can vary, but the style of the tub usually does not. Most home bath spas have suction cups, brackets (or both) for attaching the unit to your bathtub. If you have difficulty with the bracket installation, contact your local lumberyard or home improvement center for a list of contractors who can assist you.
