Atlantis Whirlpools Tub Terminology

Skirt / Apron

Bathtub aprons or skirts are decorative panels designed to cover the exposed sides of a drop-in bathtub. These aprons come in many different styles and colors to match the installed bathtub.

Soaking Bath

Soaking bathtubs are a more traditional style bathtub without water or air systems. Soaking in warm water will sooth the body, boost cardiac output, lower blood pressure and improve circulation. Water also hydrates the skin and helps your pores eliminate toxins.

Air Bath

An airpool bathtub creates thousands of warm air bubbles that stimulate the skin’s light touch receptors, producing an overall calming effect. An air blower works like a giant hair dryer, taking the room temperature air, increasing it by approximately 30° and blowing it through the bath. Air baths differ from a whirlpool in that the massage is much softer.

Whirlpool Bath

Whirlpool tubs feature jets and recirculating pumps to supply a hydro-therapeutic experience. Whirlpool tubs are designed to provide a more vigorous and comforting massage with jets positioned to direct warm water to areas like the lower and upper back, shoulders, and legs. Whirlpool water jetted tubs calm and massage your body.

Dual Bath

Dual tubs feature a combination system of air and whirlpool systems, providing the most versatile bathing experience possible.
