Description
Reclining Transfer Bathtub for Advanced Mobility & Clinical Care
The RR7 Atlantic reclining transfer bathtub is a specialized handicap bathing solution designed for individuals with significant mobility challenges who require safe, controlled transfers and therapeutic positioning during bathing. Unlike conventional walk in tubs, this model maintains the familiar footprint of a traditional bathtub while introducing a reclined, upright seating geometry that supports assisted bathing, lateral transfers, and caregiver access.
This design makes the RR7 Atlantic particularly well suited for hospitals, rehabilitation centers, long-term care facilities, and home environments where paraplegic or high-acuity patients require dependable, professional-grade bathing equipment.
Purpose-Built for Safe Transfers and Assisted Bathing
At the core of the RR7 Atlantic is its transfer-style configuration. The integrated, contoured seat is positioned at an optimal height to allow smooth transfers from wheelchairs, walkers, or mechanical lifts. The upward-swinging access door provides a wide opening at the front of the tub, reducing lateral movement and minimizing strain during entry and exit.
Once seated, the bather reclines naturally into the molded seat, allowing caregivers to maintain control throughout the bathing process. This reclined position also helps reduce muscle tension and eliminates the sudden chill factor that can occur when entering traditional tubs.
Reclining Design That Prioritizes Comfort and Clinical Control
The recline feature is not cosmetic—it is functional. By supporting the upper body in a semi-reclined posture, the RR7 Atlantic allows bathers to remain stable and supported while caregivers manage water flow, hygiene, and therapy routines. This makes it an excellent solution for patients with limited trunk control or reduced lower-body strength.
The tub’s generous bathing well provides approximately 76 gallons of capacity at overflow, with a water depth of over 21 inches from the tub floor. This allows for full-body soaking while maintaining secure positioning throughout the bath.
Engineered for Professional Healthcare Environments
The RR7 Atlantic is constructed from high-gloss gelcoat composite materials and reinforced with an aircraft-grade aluminum welded frame. This structure is engineered to handle demanding daily use in medical environments while still providing a clean, modern aesthetic appropriate for residential installations.
The unit supports an occupant weight capacity of up to 450 pounds and a combined tub, water, and occupant load of approximately 1,090 pounds. Six adjustable leveling feet allow for precise installation even on uneven floors.
Integrated Safety Systems & Advanced Features
This reclining transfer bathtub includes several factory-installed systems designed to support safe, uninterrupted operation. A built-in thermal mixing valve helps regulate water temperature, while a battery backup ensures continued functionality during power interruptions—an essential feature in healthcare settings.
An integrated disinfectant system is built into the unit, supporting infection control protocols and simplifying cleaning procedures between uses. These features make the RR7 Atlantic an ideal solution for environments where sanitation and consistency are critical.
Flexible Plumbing Configurations for Any Installation
To accommodate a wide range of facility layouts, the RR7 Atlantic supports front, side, or island plumbing configurations. This flexibility allows the tub to be installed against a wall, in a corner, or as a standalone island unit without compromising access or performance.
Hot and cold water connections utilize standard ¾-inch NPT male fittings, and the factory-installed overflow and cable drain assembly simplify installation while maintaining reliability.
Optional Therapy Enhancements
For facilities or homeowners seeking additional therapeutic benefits, the RR7 Atlantic can be upgraded with optional air spa functionality and automatic fill systems installed at the factory. These enhancements allow the tub to function not only as a bathing solution, but also as a therapy-focused tool for comfort and relaxation.
Optional accessories such as gel seat cushions, head pillows, and supply line extensions can be added to further tailor the bathing experience to individual patient needs.
Designed to Meet Recognized Safety & Performance Standards
The RR7 Atlantic reclining transfer bathtub is designed and manufactured in compliance with multiple recognized North American safety and plumbing standards, including CSA, ANSI, ASME, and UL guidelines for plastic plumbing fixtures and hydro-massage bathtubs. This ensures confidence for specifiers, facility managers, and care providers alike.
