Buying Guides Baths Steel Bath

Steel Vs Acrylic

Acrylic baths are the most common type of bath found, with a wider range of sizes available they're also the most affordable to purchase.

Our steel bath has pre drilled holes for bath taps, to allow your fitter to install easily. Both steel and acrylic baths have similar cooling properties as the water's cooling effect takes place on the water surface and not through a bath itself.

You can view our range of baths on display in your local showroom.
