Our Warren installers are prepared to make your toilet safe again, in order to take care of yourself, by getting you the proper equipment.

Question 1

1) Will a tub like this look bad for my homeowner’s insurance in Michigan?

Check with your Warren homeowner's insurance to make sure it's going to cover you against this sort of damage. You may need a house modification license from the Warren, MI building department to install a tub, particularly when walls need to be eliminated to fit your toilet plans. Most importantly, in case you needed a license and you didn't get one AND your home suffers from damage from the installed walkin tub, your losses may not be covered by your homeowner's insurance. Should you plan on ever selling your Warren home, there are lots of buyer beware messages out there that will steer potential buyers from your home since it does affect homeowner's insurance, if there have been any developments without permits. Buyers see their homeowners insurance and the licenses as protections on their investments in homes.

Question 2

2) Do these tubs use more water than conventional tubs?

Yes. A walk in bathtub is generally taller than an average bath tub, which contains about 2 1/2 feet of water on average. Some makers say if a typical shower is 7 minutes that you just use exactly the same quantity of water as a shower that is typical and you use 7 gallons of water a minute. Most of the walk-in tubs available on the market have a 40-80 gallon capacity. Actually, many manufacturers advise that you've got a hot water tank that fits at least 50 gallons, although some tubs will function effectively if you fill them with 40-60 gallons.

Question 3

3) Will AETNA cover the cost of equipment and installation in Michigan?

Aetna doesn't insure walk in bathtubs under their plans that are conventional in Michigan. They usually follow Medicare's criteria for durable medical equipment (DME) items used in the bathroom. In the event the member is bed- room or confined - some DMEs are considered necessary, instead of a convenience. DMEs are considered medically necessary if it is essential for day-to-day activities and is primarily medical in nature. Since bathing is considered a daily living action and considered vital, Aetna lists bathroom items that are considered medically necessary if a member is unable to bathe or shower without being seated or incapable to transfer to and from a tub.

Question 4

4) Do these tubs drain normally?

Yes. Sometimes, however, it's important to modify the pipes determined by the location of the drains. Installers may have to add a fitting to the existing wastewater pipe for a walk in bath. Existing plumbing may allow for faster drain times or slower drain times.

Question 5

5) What sort of guarantees are there that these tubs won’t leak and damage my Warren house?

Consumer Affairs advocates that an owner that is original buy a lifetime guarantee to give peace of mind to buyers about flows. Also, ask if the lifetime warranty is extended to other owners too. For Michigan home installments, this will likely be contained for a set number of years.

Question 6

6) About how long does the installation process take with your Warren installers?

Once the bathtub arrives, an installment requires between one and three days of work in Warren. It really depends upon the extent of the job. You need to make us know whether there's a crucial deadline involving a household member coming for a visit or a loved one's release from Michigan rehabilitation so that we can do the best we can to accommodate you.

Question 7

7) Why are these tubs so much more expensive than normal tubs?

Mainly you're paying for a list of safety features which are not accessible on a regular bathtub. These safety features are built into walk-in baths for individuals with limited freedom to decrease the chance of falling down. An essential aspect of walk in baths is that there is a low step threshold to allow a user to easily enter into the bathtub unconcerned concerning the conventional high wall of a regular tub. The walk in bathtubs also usually include jet therapy a cleaning function, and improved drain options. Furthermore, one of the reasons why the cost varies among the walk in baths is that the baths are custom made depending on someone 's demands rather than factory reproduced, so you could find a tub that's specially made for someone who needs wheelchair access, a bath that fits a bigger person, or a soaker tub with jets.

Question 8

8) How do walk in bathtubs work?

When you enter the walk-in tub, you close the doorway and seal it by pulling the handle toward you. Make sure that the handle is locked in order to prevent any water loss. There are different types of handles determined by the model you decide to purchase. Make sure it is a handle you could certainly operate. Following that, the floor drain close and make sure that the anti-scald device has been preset before using the bath. Once the bathtub fills to the desired depth, your bath is prepared. After you've finished your bath, turn the overflow knob or remove the drain determined by the kind of drain you must drain the water. Pull on the bathtub exit and handle the tub.

Question 9

9) Will AARP cover the cost of equipment and installation?

AARP is not a supplier of insurance, but contracts with insurance companies to make coverage available to AARP members. AARP doesn't make health plan recommendations for individuals and does not cover the expense of walk-in bathtubs or any health needs. AARP does provide coverage like other health plans and Medicare Supplement Insurance and access to medical care tools to members as a resource, but member benefits are provided by third parties. Check with the plans which are recorded under AARP's membership services in Michigan.
