With no state income taxes and a relatively low cost of living, Texas is a popular place for retirees. Many seniors choose to live in Waco for its consistent warm temperatures that let residents enjoy year-round outdoor activities.
Nearly 12 percent of Waco residents are 65 or older. This age group is more susceptible to injuries; every 11 seconds, a senior is in an emergency room being treated for a fall. Installing a walk-in tub reduces the risk of slipping and gives seniors confidence when bathing. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends seniors reduce fall risks in their homes, especially hazardous areas like the bathroom.
People with disabilities also benefit from walk-in tubs. More than 8 percent of Waco’s population has a disability that may limit their mobility or increase their risk of falling. Other people who benefit include anyone with balance problems and people with chronic aches and pains.
The price of a walk-in tub depends on the company, type of tub and installed features. Some companies offer free installation, financing options and other benefits to help offset the purchase price. Compare products from several companies to find the tub that best fits your needs and budget.
Type | Overview | Features/benefits | Average cost |
---|---|---|---|
Walk-in soaking tub | Basic model | Leak-proof door, seat, anti-slip floors, grab bars | $1,500 - $5,000 |
Aerotherapy tub | Soaker tub + air jets | Added therapeutic massage benefits | $5,000 - $9,000 |
Hydrotherapy tub | Soaker tub + water jets | More intensive massage benefits | $5,000 - $7,000 |
Combination walk-in tub | Soaker tub + air jets + water jets | More customization options, versatile benefits | $7,000 - $10,000 |
Manufacturers also offer wheelchair-accessible tubs and bariatric tubs designed for larger Waco residents.
The average cost to install a walk-in tub is around $1,500. Most walk-in tubs are designed to fit in the area currently taken by a traditional bathtub and can be retrofit into your bathroom. Most homes do not require any additional plumbing or electrical changes. If you need to hire a licensed contractor, it increases the cost of installation.
Original Medicare does not provide financial assistance for walk-in tubs. A small number of private health insurance providers cover some or part of the cost — check with your provider to see if your policy covers a walk-in tub.
Because many people pay for the cost of a walk-in tub without assistance from insurance, there are several federal or local programs available to Waco residents to help them afford one.
While a walk-in tub may require an initial investment, the comfort gained from aging in place and reducing bathroom falls far outweigh the upfront costs.
