Hotel Requirements

Simply stated, if a product will do the same job as the renovation, the product can be used. As you can see, the TUB SLIDE SHOWER CHAIR fits perfectly into this category.

The purpose for requiring hotels to have roll-in showers is to allow someone who cannot walk or stand the ability to take a shower. This is exactly what the TUB SLIDE SHOWER CHAIR does.

The TUB SLIDE SHOWER CHAIR is an excellent alternative to a roll-in-shower. It allows any hotel room to become accessible without costly renovations. When it is not needed, this product can be easily stored in a closet. The result is that the hotels & motels will have unlimited rooms available for their disabled guests, (rather, than only a few specialized units). Also, the TUB SLIDE SHOWER CHAIR will eliminate the need for the hotel guest to travel with their own shower chair, which can be very cumbersome.

If a hotel has a roll-in shower, the disabled individual has to travel with equipment to use in the shower. However, with the TUB SLIDE SHOWER CHAIR there is no need for additional equipment.

Also important is the fact that the hotel room can retain the bathtub and be more easily rented to customers with less special needs.
