What are the cost-saving benefits of walk-in bathtubs for senior homes?

A walk-in bathtub can make bathing at home more practical, but it should not be purchased on a promise of lower medical bills, guaranteed utility savings or a fixed resale return. Compare the full installed price, maintenance, energy use and warranty. A straightforward soaking model can cost less than one with several powered features. Ask for itemized prices and verified assistance options before deciding what fits your budget.
