Choosing the right bathtub for your bathroom is a decision that can significantly affect the comfort and aesthetics of this important room. When looking for the perfect bathtub, it is worth considering several key factors, such as the size of the bathroom, the preferred design, the materials the bathtub is made of and the way it is installed. Here is a detailed guide to help you make the right choice.
Types of bathtubs and their uses
Freestanding bathtubs
Freestanding bathtubs are a luxurious choice that works great in large bathrooms. These elegant and stylish bathtubs can be placed anywhere, which gives you a lot of freedom in terms of design. An example of such a solution is the Euphoria bathtub with a gold finish in the Limited version. Placing it in the middle of the bathroom with a tall floor tap will add a unique character to the interior.
Wall-mounted bathtubs
Wall-mounted bathtubs are a great solution for both small and large bathrooms. Mounted along the wall, they save space, which is especially important in smaller rooms. Our Sensual Wall model is a perfect example of such a product that allows for efficient use of space. Our Ravon Sensual Wall model is a perfect example of a bathtub that combines elegance with functionality, optimally using the available space.
Corner bathtubs
Corner bathtubs are a great option for those who want to make the most of the space available in their bathroom. Installed in a corner, they provide more space for other bathroom equipment. They are available in various sizes and shapes, which allows them to be adapted to individual needs. Ravon Neo Corner is an example of a bathtub that combines compact dimensions with comfort and aesthetics.
Bathtub materials
Acrylic
Acrylic is one of the most popular materials used to make bathtubs. It is lightweight, durable and easy to keep clean. Acrylic bathtubs are available in various shapes and sizes, which makes them easy to fit into any interior. A disadvantage may be their susceptibility to scratches, but modern models often have additional protective layers.
Cast iron
Cast iron bathtubs are characterized by exceptional durability and a classic look. They are heavier and more expensive than acrylic ones, but they retain heat for a long time, which increases the comfort of bathing. Due to their weight, they can be more difficult to install in older buildings.
Steel
Steel bathtubs are durable and resistant to damage. Their surface is covered with enamel, which may be less scratch-resistant than acrylic, but they offer great performance properties and are relatively affordable.
Qualtec - Ravon Materials
Qualtec is a modern composite material that is characterized by high strength and durability. It is resistant to scratches and mechanical damage, which makes bathtubs made of this material an ideal choice for demanding users.
PuroMetal - Ravon Materials
PuroMetal is an exclusive material that gives bathtubs an industrial and modern character. Bathtubs made of PuroMetal are extremely durable and resistant to damage, which makes them an excellent choice for bathrooms with a unique style.
Practical advice
Measure accurately
Before buying a bathtub, carefully measure the available space in your bathroom, taking into account not only the dimensions of the bathtub, but also the space for easy access and any additional installations, such as shelves or a bathtub screen. Precise measurements will help avoid unpleasant surprises during installation.
Think about functionality
If you want to be able to take a quick shower, consider buying a bathtub with a bathtub screen or a shower set. This solution allows you to enjoy both a bath and a quick shower, which is extremely practical for everyday use.
Match the style to the interior
Match the shape and material of the bathtub to the style of your bathroom. Simple, geometric shapes work best for modern interiors, while oval or freestanding bathtubs on legs will complement classic bathrooms.
