Understanding Acrylic Clawfoot Construction
When selecting a traditional clawfoot tub, many buyers assume heavy cast iron is the only authentic option. However, modern acrylic construction offers a clever solution by layering reinforced resin over a sturdy structural form. Think of it like a high performance boat hull, where exterior strength and rigidity are achieved without unnecessary bulk. This clever engineering allows the Barclay Imperial tub to weigh significantly less while maintaining a solid, comfortable feel during your soak.
Installation Guide
Ensure the subfloor is level and capable of supporting the filled weight of 443 pounds prior to placement.
Position the tub carefully on its brushed nickel Imperial feet, adjusting leveling feet if necessary for stability.
Connect the 1-1/2 inch drain and overflow assemblies securely according to standard plumbing practices.
Mount your compatible rim mount faucet to the 2-hole rim setup using appropriate waterproof seals.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinse Rinse the acrylic surface with warm water after each bath to prevent soap scum buildup.
Gentle Cleaning Use a soft sponge or microfiber cloth with mild liquid dish soap or a specialized acrylic cleaner.
Avoid Abrasives Never use scouring powders, steel wool, or harsh chemical solvents that can dull the white finish.
Hardware Care Wipe the brushed nickel Imperial feet with a soft, dry cloth to maintain their polished appearance.
Stain Removal Treat occasional stubborn marks with a non-abrasive cleaner and rinse thoroughly with water.
