Patented Undercut Design Enhances safety during entry and exit by helping maintain a stable center of gravity.
Integrated Splash Guard Works alongside the undercut design to keep water contained inside the basin during showers.

Seamless Tile Integration Features a specialized back wall measurement for a clean, professional fit against tiled walls.
Right Drain Placement Configured with a 2-inch drain on the right side to match specific bathroom plumbing layouts.
Understanding the Patented Undercut Design
The standout feature of this bathtub is its patented undercut architecture. Think of it like an ergonomic carve-out at the base of the tub wall that allows your feet to get closer to your natural center of gravity as you step over the rim. In traditional bathtubs, you often have to lean your torso forward awkwardly to clear the side wall, which can easily cause slips or loss of balance. By shifting the entry clearance inward and integrating a splash guard function, this design lets you step straight down into a stable standing position with significantly better posture and control.
Installation Guide
Ensure your alcove space measures correctly for a standard 60-inch by 30-inch footprint prior to final positioning.
Verify that your rough-in plumbing aligns precisely with the right-side 2-inch drain placement.
Make use of the specialized back wall measurement to achieve a seamless, tight integration against your tiled wall finish.
Check that the subfloor is level and capable of supporting the combined weight of the acrylic tub and water capacity.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Rinse the acrylic basin with warm water after each bath to wash away soap residue.
Gentle Cleaning Use a soft microfiber cloth or sponge along with mild liquid dish soap or a non-abrasive bathroom cleaner.
Stain Removal Apply a mixture of baking soda and water for light spot cleaning without scratching the high-gloss finish.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals Never use abrasive scouring powders, steel wool, or harsh solvent-based chemical cleaners on acrylic surfaces.
Dry Surfaces Wipe down the sides and floor of the tub periodically with a soft towel to prevent water spots.

Investing in Long-Term Bathroom Reliability
Choosing the right bathtub involves looking beyond basic measurements to consider how the fixture will perform over decades of daily family use. The Whitehaus alcove soaking bathtub combines high-grade acrylic material with intelligent structural engineering to ensure lasting performance. Acrylic is naturally resilient against chipping and fading, maintaining its bright white luster even when subjected to frequent scrubbing and heavy water exposure. By integrating a specialized back wall measurement designed for seamless tile integration, this tub helps prevent the common gaps where moisture typically accumulates, protecting your surrounding bathroom walls from hidden water damage and reducing long-term upkeep.
Beyond structural durability, this bathtub enhances your daily home experience by combining relaxing soaking depths with practical versatility. The 59-gallon capacity allows adults to unwind comfortably, while the lower profile and stable undercut geometry provide a reassuring entry point for family members of all ages.
