You have to have your own hose connected to a water source (standard exterior faucet). Only a fan shaped sprinkler head is provided to attach to your hose. Dimensions of the tub depends on the size of the unit you buy for the size of your dog. There is a drain hose supplied for the unit.

The kit includes a spray nozzle and a length of vinyl hosing that hooks up to any regular water faucet. We phave a sink in our garage, so we can use warm water, but it would hook up to a hose bib as well. We love this tub because our dog is about 70 lbs and jumps right up into it (ours has the legs) and we don't have to lift her or bend over while washing her. For size appropriate for your dog go to the website. It is very thourough. Enjoy!

No, you do hookup water to the tub. There is a special sprinkler head that comes with the unit that you screw on to a regular water hose. The unit comes with a drain hose that is connected on the bottom of the tub to direct the drainage out and to the side.

Jill, Yes, you do have to hook up a garden/wash machine type hose to the shower head that comes with the booster bath. Depending on the weather I run a hose out a window near my untility room sink so that I have both hot and cold water combined. During the winter months I just bring the tub into one of our bathrooms and hook up to the sink and run the drain hose directly into the tub drain. Works very well. I little caution about doing this inside as my dogs will have a tendancy to try and shake the water off and can cause for water sprayed onto the floor. Hope this helps you, cga

You can hook it up to a garden hose, or we have it inside hooked up to the hot and cold facets where my washer and dryer had been.. If you plan to use inside we used a t water hook up purchased at ace hardware...The bottom part of the hose you get has the female piece....I hope this helps.. I have three dogs and I wish I had purchased this item long ago I love it...

Our tub was very similar. I went to a local hardware store to get a metal pipe that would fit into the shower rod at each end, connecting to the wall. This extended the length of the shower rod out to meet the width of the tub. I did later order extra ceiling supports for stability since it only came with one.

It hooks up to your garden hose, It works great. I was very impressed but I use it in my pool (saltwater) not a hot tub. Remember it adds alot water to whatever your cleaning!

You will find it to be plenty long - it is about 3-4 feet long. It won't hit the tub bottom if it dangles from my shower head, which is at about 6-6.5 feet high. I have this and the on-the-counter one. This one's battery life doesn't last as long as I would like / hope, and the 2 settings are not terribly strong.

I don't know. We don't use it anymore. However, my tub is a standard size & really not that big.

It was for my daughter. I think her tub is approx. that size. However, there was still room for expansion. I found it to be most helpful.

The tub is able to heat water, but I think that would take some time if you pour in tab cold water. I have always just filled it with hot/warm water and use the function to keep it warm.

On the opposite end of the tub? What i know is you can mount it anywhere on the shower curtian rod that you want, you just have to have your water supply. Hope this helped!

It does not fit in the tub. The legs are too wide for a standard tub. It's meant to be used outside or in a walk in shower, I think.

Install is fairly simple. The tub only has a drain. There are no provisions for installing faucets. You can buy stand alone faucets through Amazon or Ebay that mount on the floor next to the tub with the spout extending over the tub. To mount the tub, I built a 4" high wood platform around the bottom of the tub. I mounted the tub to the platform, ran the drain tube through a hole in the platform and then secured the platform to the floor with eight large wood screws whose heads I covered with dowels and paint. .

Are you asking if the sink is too big? I don't think so - seems some folks just use the bathtub! I measured the plastic tub I use (which I put in the bathtub) - it is a 12"x17" rectangle that is 12" deep. I can wash a load of undies, or a couple shirts and slacks or a queen sheet in the tub without even filling it clear up. I would think if you use a laundry sink, which might be bigger, you would just keep the water more shallow. You can tell when you have the water high enough to plunge the clothes around easily. In fact, I was just reading the newer reviews here and I like the idea of putting a laundry basket inside the washing tub so you can lift out the clothes to empty the water. You could certainly do that inside a laundry tub! Also, I just did a couple loads yesterday and am still enjoying the mobile washer - short handle and all. My handle has not loosened, but I'm sure I can fix it if it does. I really do like this device - it keeps my inner hippy chick alive in my social security aged body!

Attaches to existing shower water source. You will need to drill two holes, need a special drill if its a tiled shower, find a stud and use screws that go 1 inch into stud.

Hi, My tub is 30 inches and it expands to this size. It still has room to expand much bigger.. Still loving it!

Don't have actual dimensions, but does fit facing ends of tub facing the faucet, or shower head.

I agree that the shower is short. I added a 6 inch brass nipple and coupling to raise the height while keeping the valves at a reasonable position for all.

the tub actually comes in two different sizes. one for the smaller dogs and of course one for the larger dogs. i really don't know the dimensions but it should be on the product ad. i would just recommend using out of the tub but putting the hose in the tub to drain. then the size of the tub doesn't matter. this will also probably let your hose last longer as it won't be bent or coiled anywhere while in use.
