Frequently Asked Questions


1) Can I make one of these myself?

Yes, but most individuals do not start from scratch, they begin with a bathtub conversion kit. There are instructions available on how exactly to convert your existing bathtub into a walk-in bath. We advise that you just understand the way to use the tools that are appropriate so that you just do not end up with a non-working bath. There are companies that understand the way to turn your tub more handicap as well as your house reachable for less of an investment than other options. As Virginia installers, we understand just how to direct you in the correct course, so please ask us for a consultation so we are able to assist you in making your home meet your current wants, particularly if you have recently become disabled or are supplying an elderly individual care-giving in their house or your residence.

2) Will Medicare cover the cost of equipment and installation in Virginia?

Medicare does not cover walk in bathtub equipment and installation costs in Virginia, for the reason that they are house adjustments, not durable medical equipment. Durable medical equipment doesn't include physical changes to a home, only medical equipment and materials which are used to help a patient in and out of bed or a chair, or use a shower or bath safer and simpler. Consumer Affairs implies that you might wish to contact Medicare to see if (for freedom safety reasons) a walk-in tub is warranted to determine whether the equipment may be somewhat compensated. More often than not, they will not cover it. However, if you are qualified for Medicaid, your state's program may provide you with some financial assistance for a walk-in tub. You may qualify for a Home and Community Based Service (HCBS) waiver to play for specific specialized medical equipment and availability adjustments. If you're a recipient of Medicare and Medicaid, it's also wise to think about the Double-Eligible Specific Needs Strategy. Medicaid provides a whole listing of waivers applicable to the elderly that we suggest that you review. Additionally, contact your Chesapeake or Virginia Area Agency on Aging (AAA) to explore Medicaid Waivers and financial alternatives for long term care.

3) Will the cost of installation and equipment be covered by my disability in Virginia?

If your handicap was due to a car or work accident, check with the correct insurance insurance company to see if house adjustments resulting from your VA disability are covered. Claims that contain Chesapeake house modifications are admissible in insurance resolutions. Someone qualifies for Social Security disability benefits when they have worked in work that was insured by Social Security and have a medical condition that meets their definition of disability. Benefits might be insured in case you are injured or on handicap. Since SSI is a needs-based program plus an SSI recipient must have limited income and resources, qualification for the Plan for Achieving Self-Support (PASS) allows a person who has a disability to attain an occupational goal. The money that's set aside under a PASS can be used for anything that results in an occupational objective and may be used to cover home adjustments through an SSI savings strategy. If you are a veteran, the Department of Veterans' Affairs does offer individual programs that may help you deflect a number of the price. You can also ask in the event you are eligible for the which is modeled after Medicaid's Consumer Directed HCBS, or the VA Aid and Attendance, Housebound and other Pensions. Contact the VA and ask for VA form 26-4555 to submit an application for a SAH or SHA grant. For advice on all VA benefits in Virginia call 1 800 827 1000.

4) Will a tub like this add to my Chesapeake home’s resale value?

In case you reside in a Chesapeake retirement community, installing a walk in bath may raise the value of your own home. Otherwise, it likely will not raise the value of your dwelling. Since changes to your toilet do not normally raise the value of your house, the price may be eligible for the medical expense deduction for tax purposes both federally and in Virginia if the primary objective of the improvements is to adapt a home to the disability of the citizen, their partner or dependent living there.

5) Will a tub like this look bad for my homeowner’s insurance in Virginia?

Many upgraded homeowner's insurance policies protect against flooding from your pipes and appliances. Check with your Chesapeake homeowner's insurance to ensure it will cover you against this type of damage. You may require a house adjustment license from the Chesapeake, VA building department to install a tub, particularly when walls need to be eliminated to coordinate with your bathroom plans. Most of all, you didn't get one AND somehow and in the event you needed a permit your house suffers from damage from the installed walk in bath, your homeowner's insurance may not cover your losses. In case you plan on ever selling your Chesapeake house, there are plenty of buyer beware messages out there which will steer prospective buyers from your house if there have been any improvements without permits since it does influence homeowner's insurance. Buyers see the permits as well as their homeowners insurance as protections on their investments in homes.

6) About how much will one of these tubs cost to get installed?

The installation can cost you around $1,500-$3,000 to be installed in Chesapeake. Occasionally the expense of the unit and the setup is a better investment than paying for a caretaker.

7) Why are these tubs so much more expensive than normal tubs?

Mainly you are paying for a listing of safety features that are unavailable on a regular bathtub. These safety features are built into walk in bathtubs for individuals with limited mobility to decrease the likelihood of falling down. Model wall heights are generally 37 to 47 inches tall and include a built in shower seat, textured flooring, grab bars, anti-scald valves, in-line heater, temperature controls, plus a watertight door. An essential part of walk in tubs is that there is a low step threshold to permit a user to readily enter into the tub unconcerned concerning the conventional high wall of a regular tub. The walk in bathtubs also normally contain jet therapy, a cleaning function, and enhanced drain options. Also, one of the reasons why the cost varies among the walk in tubs is that the tubs are custom made depending on someone 's demands rather than factory reproduced, in order to discover a bathtub that is especially made for somebody who desires wheelchair access, a bath that fits a bigger person, or a soaker tub with jets.

8) Will AETNA cover the cost of equipment and installation in Virginia?

Aetna does not insure walk-in bathtubs under their conventional plans in Virginia. Aetna does not cover walk in baths under their HMO and health network plans either. They typically follow Medicare's standards for durable medical equipment (DME) items used in the toilet. In the event the member is bed- confined or room - some DMEs are considered necessary, rather than a public toilet. DMEs are considered medically necessary if it's necessary for day-to-day activities and is primarily medical in nature. Since bathing considered vital and is considered a daily living action, Aetna lists bathroom items that are considered necessary if a member is not able to bathe or shower without being seated or unable to transfer to and from a tub.

9) Is there any additional structural support needed before installation?

Many walk-in tubs are mounted to a stainless steel welded support frame with leveling feet that is included with your bathtub that was bought. The floor in the bathroom must have a structural support strength that transcends the weight of the tub in addition to the weight of the water. Our Chesapeake installer will check to determine if it is not, whether the floor is level and otherwise, then they'll make use of the leveling legs to correct the degree of the bath. Of course, the last bath will need to be eliminated. Also, the if replacing, the wall or tile in the region will have to be removed.

10) Can I convert my existing bathtub into a walk-in one?

Yes. There are instructions available on how exactly to convert your existing bathtub into a walk in bath. We recommend that you just understand how to use the correct tools in order that you do not end up with a non-working bath. There are businesses in Chesapeake that know the best way to turn your house and your handicap that is tub more reachable for less of an investment than alternatives. As installers, we know how to direct you in the right direction, so please ask us for a consultation so we can help you make your home meet your current wants, particularly if you have recently become disabled or are supplying an aged person care-giving in their own house or your residence.

11) Are there any kits available for installing my own walk-in tub?

Yes, producers do offer do-it-yourself installations of a bathroom conversion kit. Depending on whether you have the appropriate tools and specialized familiarity with the instruments, it is not impossible. Yet, lots of times, someone thinks it's going to be inexpensive to buy all the tools that are appropriate. These tools can be expensive, so make sure you compare the expense of purchasing each of the tools and the expense of your time learning how to install the kit together with the expense of a professional setup. If you are someone who does a lot of home improvements, then the directions might seem pretty easy. Simply make sure the unit you bought did not get damaged during transport and the unit is tested by them in line with the manufacturer's directions.

12) Do these tubs drain normally?

Yes. Sometimes, however, it is critical to change the pipes depending on the positioning of the drains. Installers may need to put in a fitting to the present wastewater pipe for a walk in bath. Present pipes may allow for slower drain times or faster drain times.
