I just ordered this, does anyone have any issues filling the tub it looks really short as if it won't reach the tub lip?

It was a super easy installation. Everything fit super nice no problem with tub lip on mine

Yes. I have problem with it. After few weeks from installation, when the water flow is open, the panel makes same noice and the screen of thermometer is off.

Hi I am about to order this AKDY shower panel, did you have any problems installing it? Did any one address your filling the tub issues?

no, deep fill is the highest water can (and should) go on this tub.. for us it wasn't a problem as we're coming from a 3.2cf and this is a 3.9cf so it's working well for us.. biggest thing we have is a Queen comforter and it washes it without a problem..

I think it would be too low mounted on the side of the tub. It's meant to be mounted on a smooth wall surrounding the tub.

I don't quite understand when you say "looks to be too short"? My water was getting slow and I know it is because I have very hard water around my area. I ran a cup of diluted Bar Keeper's Friend through then ran a few more times with clear water. It cleared the problem and the water goes down very fast again.

I was able to get mine under my filled tub with a rubber mallet and a large crow bar, since the plate is pretty thin once I got it started with the crow bar to create opening it went pretty easily. Not sure it will work for all models but it worked for mine (Caldera Spa)

Dear Mr. Hinman; would it be possible for you to measure the width of the legs on your chair for me? Front legs from side to side and back legs from side to side. It looks like the perfect chair for me, but would sure hate to order something that's too wide for the tub. My tub is 22 in. wide and any more than that would be sitting on the curved part of the tub. Please advise and thank you so very much! Terri M.

I measured as best I could with legs in highest position. The clearance below the lowest point (the sliders on the seat that connect it to the frame sit lowest) is about 19 1/2. I'd say you probably want the tub height to be below 19"...maybe 19 1/4. Hope that helps!

OK, because the hose is metal it has some 'stretch' in it. It is 72" when 'stretched', but if I just let it drop to the tub, it is 63", problem is then head sits on the floor of the tub. I am finding it tough to be 'exact' because of this. Sorry I couldn't be more precise!

Hi. Our commode is oval and somewhat elongated, and the sitz bath fits just fine. The holding power(?) of the device is the side parts of the bath. Actually, you wouldn't want the commode to be TOO short because the overflow holes in the front and th back need some space around them to shoot excess water back into the toilet, not onto the floor. In other words, there NEEDS to be a little gap both in front and behind the bath.

Yes, it is a 'drop in' tub. There are no finished sides. Maybe you can order it with a finished side??

the water in the tub is only about 24 inches deep when you fill the spa up to the top of the filter . . . I am a small person -- took the head rests out and filled the tub up to nearly the top . . . it is fine for me, but, using the lounger is uncomfortable and the water just barely covers my body . . . in the future, I will opt for four reclining corner seats instead of any lounger. I just use the two seats . . . the other thing is that there is not a lot of leg room between the seat and the floor. For a taller person -- taller than 5'4", I would suspect that it would be uncomfortable. Otherwise, it is a nice size for one person, energy efficient and will serve my winter needs for a few years.

Go to their website .the first filling is slow as all the spaces have to get wet and then let water through, think of it as great sponge slowly absorbing fluid... But after that if you keep top half in water the bottom is always available. Maybe you have a silicon nut in wrong placeBut again they have always been able to answer all my questio either through website or by direct contact. We love ours.

Yes, I had it all installed over my tub and it perfect (I'm also pretty tall at 5'10). I did a full gut/renovation of my bathroom with permits, and unfortunately my plumbing inspector did not accept the fixture (valve) as it didn't come with any paperwork/markings confirming UPC (Universal Plumbing Code). I contacted Amazon and the manufacturer trying to obtain a spec sheet. But without luck. The customer service is close to non-existing with the manufacturer. Amazon held up their part as always.

If you already have a bumpy surface, why do you want more? Since it rolls on, I suppose it would go over the top just fine, though. As far as coverage goes, you should have plenty. I have a deep soaker tub, so it's a bit shorter than most, but I only used maybe half the bottle, with plenty left over.

I think it might be too big for your tub. If you don't need a back, try looking at the round seat that rotates. Good luck!
