Understanding Copper Sinks and Tubs
Copper is a living metal known for its ability to evolve over time. Much like a fine leather jacket or hardwood floor, hand-crafted copper reacts naturally to water, oils, and air, developing a unique, organic patina that grows richer with age. The 16 gauge thickness used in this tub provides a solid, substantial feel while maintaining excellent thermal conductivity, meaning the metal helps retain your bathwater temperature longer than standard acrylic alternatives. Visible interior seams highlight the authentic hand-crafted origin of the piece, ensuring no two tubs are exactly alike.
Installation Guide
Ensure your subfloor is professionally evaluated to support the 325-pound dry weight and 728-pound filled weight of the copper tub.
Position the decorative plinth base on a level surface before setting the tub into place.
Connect a standard 1 1/2 inch center drain to your home plumbing system with the assistance of a licensed professional.
Select a freestanding floor-mounted or wall-mounted faucet to supply water since the tub features no pre-drilled faucet holes.
Care & Maintenance
Regular Cleaning Wipe down the copper interior and exterior surfaces with a soft cloth and mild soap after use.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals Never use abrasive cleaners, bleach, or harsh acidic detergents that can strip the protective lacquer.
Preserve the Luster Apply a quality paste wax periodically to protect the hand-polished finish and slow natural patina development if desired.
Prevent Standing Water Do not let pools of water or wet bath mats sit on the surface for extended periods.
Dry Thoroughly Use a soft towel to dry the tub after draining to prevent water spot accumulation.
