The 3053 is 53 inches long and 30 inches wide. Measure the alcove length, width and the narrowest doorway on the path to the bathroom, then send us the numbers. Extension panels close the gap in a standard 60-inch alcove, and we confirm fit before you order.
The tub stands 38 inches high, so water reaches the chest of a seated bather rather than the waist. If you have a 40-gallon water heater, ask us about fill times.
No. Hydro and air systems are plumbed into the shell at the factory, so choose your therapy package when you order. Heated seat, chromatherapy and aromatherapy are chosen at the same time.
No. We ship supply-only anywhere in the U.S. and Canada (free shipping to the lower 48 on many models, freight quoted for Canada) and you keep the factory warranty when the tub is installed to specification, and Meditub is a strong choice for contractors who want a proven acrylic tub at a sharp price. Or our factory-certified installers handle everything, usually in one day.
The Meditub 30” x 53” walk in bathtub (Model 3053) is a popular choice for homeowners and facilities looking to support aging in place while maintaining comfort, independence, and dignity at home. Designed to fit into most standard bathrooms, this walk in bath offers a balance of interior space and compact exterior dimensions, making it suitable for residential homes, assisted living environments, and light commercial use.
As the cost of assisted living and long-term care continues to rise, many seniors and families are choosing to modify their homes instead. A properly selected walk in bath allows individuals to remain in familiar surroundings while addressing one of the most challenging daily activities—bathing.

The Meditub 3053 walk in bath is spacious enough for comfortable seated bathing while remaining compact enough to fit through standard doorways and into many existing tub openings. This makes it an excellent option for remodels where expanding the bathroom footprint is not practical.
The built-in seating position allows bathers to remain upright while bathing, reducing the need to lower down into a traditional tub basin. Many models also include internal grab bars, helping provide additional support during entry, seating, and exit.
Bathrooms are often considered one of the most challenging areas of the home, which is why many homeowners begin their aging in place upgrades here. In addition to a walk in bathtub, features such as grab bars near the tub, shower, or toilet can further improve usability.
This model is available as a soaking tub or with optional air hydrotherapy, water hydrotherapy, or combination systems. Before selecting any hydrotherapy option, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider to confirm which systems are appropriate for you.
Air hydrotherapy is often preferred by older adults because it uses warm air circulated through small jets rather than recycled bathwater. This system is generally perceived as gentler and requires less internal plumbing maintenance.
Water hydrotherapy circulates bathwater through jets beneath the tub. While more forceful, it may require additional maintenance and accessories such as purge cycles or UV sanitation features. For individuals who bruise easily or prefer lighter massage action, air-only systems are often the preferred choice.
The 30” x 53” walk in bathtub is designed to support long-term home use. Aging in place modifications focus on reducing strain, simplifying movement, and improving everyday comfort—without requiring relocation.
Many homeowners pair this tub with additional bathroom upgrades such as roll in showers or handheld shower systems. You can explore complementary options on our handicap showers page or browse our full selection of walk in tubs here.
