LIfetime Warranty Walk In Tubs and 30 Year Warranty Roll In Showers
If you or a loved one are evaluating home safety upgrades for mobility challenges or aging in place, warranty protection is one of the most important factors to consider. At Aging Safely Baths, we work with manufacturers that offer 30-year warranties on most handicap roll-in showers and full lifetime warranties on most walk-in bathtubs. These warranties demonstrate confidence in long-term performance, safety, and durability.
This guide will help you understand the differences between warranty types, what they really mean, what is covered, how claims are handled, and what certifications matter — especially IAPMO approvals for walk-in tubs.
Accessible bathing products are safety devices — not just bathroom fixtures. For seniors, those with disabilities, and caregivers, reliability and quality are non-negotiable. A strong warranty is more than paper — it is peace of mind.
- Reduces long-term cost: Less risk of unexpected repairs.
- Ensures reliability: Hardware and seals remain functional.
- Confirms safety: Slip-resistant floors and grab bars remain structurally secure.
- Reflects quality manufacturing: U.S.-made, carefully engineered construction.
| Product Type | Warranty Length | Covers | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Handicap Roll-In Showers | 30-Year Warranty | Walls, base, structure, materials | Most are reinforced fiberglass or composite, built to withstand decades of use. |
| Walk-In Bathtubs | Lifetime Warranty | Shell, frame, door seal, sometimes all mechanical components | Top models include lifetime on motors, pumps, jets, and seals. |
| Shower Wall Surround Systems | 10-Year Warranty | Panels and structural mounting | Great option for remodels where full base replacement isn’t required. |
| Specialty Units or Custom Fabrications | Varies by manufacturer | Material-specific protection | We help you understand every coverage detail. |
Yes — our barrier-free and ADA-compliant showers are proudly manufactured in Boise, Idaho, using durable American-sourced materials. Many of our walk-in tubs are also U.S.-built, ensuring faster replacement part availability and strict quality control.
IAPMO (International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials) certification ensures that walk-in tubs meet rigorous standards for safety, plumbing integrity, and reliability. Having an IAPMO-certified tub means it has been tested for proper drainage, sealing, pressure tolerances, water flow, and structural integrity.
This matters because walk-in tubs that are not certified may fail prematurely, leak, or develop dangerous mold issues from improper system design. When investing in a tub for aging-in-place, IAPMO certification is a critical quality indicator.
Falls are one of the leading causes of injury among seniors. According to the CDC, over 3 million older adults are treated for fall injuries every year. Bathrooms are especially hazardous due to wet surfaces, threshold steps, and limited maneuvering space.
Additionally, according to the National Institute on Aging, fall prevention can greatly extend independence for aging adults.
- Install grab bars at key points — inside the shower and near the toilet.
- Add non-slip mats or permanent slip-resistant floor coatings.
- Ensure plenty of lighting — especially at night.
- Keep soap and shampoo accessible without bending or reaching.
- Use a shower seat or built-in bench for stability.
- Have towels and clothing within easy reach after bathing.
- Remove clutter and floor obstacles near the bathroom entry.
- For some users — consider handheld shower wands for seated bathing.
These solutions are chosen by people:
- Aging adults wanting to remain independent at home.
- Those using wheelchairs or walkers.
- Adults recovering from injury or surgery.
- People with neurological mobility challenges.
- Veterans and disabled individuals needing accessible bathing.
- Children and caregivers assisting aging parents.
