Why It Matters
Built So the Bath Can Restore, Not Just Clean
In Scandinavian culture, the bath has always been more than hygiene — it's rest, warmth, the unhurried feeling of being cared for. Fixed-height tubs strip that away — demanding so much from the caregiver's body that there's little left for the person in the tub. TR Equipment bathing systems change that — height-adjustable on every model, so the caregiver isn't straining over the side, they're present with the person in it.
The tub adjusts to the caregiverHeight-adjustable on every model — no more bending over a fixed tub. The caregiver works at the right height, for every patient, every shift.
Getting in and out is the most vulnerable momentEntry configurations and accessible side profiles reduce the physical demands of transfers — the hardest part of any bath made safer by design.
Clean enough for the most demanding environmentsSmooth, non-porous surfaces rated for repeated disinfection — including the TR-900 Stainless, specified for burn units and high-hygiene clinical areas.
Hand-built to outlast the procurement cycleHand-assembled in Sweden — one craftsman, one tub — built to the standard of something meant to last, not to be replaced.

Common Questions
What Buyers Usually Ask
How do I purchase TR Equipment bathing systems?
TR Group works through a network of authorized distributor partners across North America. Submit an inquiry with your facility type, space details, and patient population — we'll connect you with the right distributor for your region.
Which model is right for a skilled nursing or long-term care facility?
The TR-900 is the most widely specified model for skilled nursing and long-term care — height-adjustable, accessible entry, built for daily institutional use. If space is limited, the TR-1700's compact profile and optional casters may be a better fit. Share your room dimensions and patient volume in the inquiry form and a distributor can advise on the right choice.
Do these require special installation?
Simpler than most facilities expect. You place the unit, connect to standard water supply, drain, and electrical — that's it. No remodeling, no custom plumbing, no structural work. If the room already has a floor drain and standard connections, a TR Equipment bathing system can be operational the same day it arrives. Your distributor can provide full installation specifications to confirm compatibility with your space before purchase.
Can the Spaceline be used for aquatic therapy, not just standard bathing?
Yes — the Spaceline's wider bathing surface makes it well suited for therapeutic use and light aquatic exercises, in both facility and home settings. Its dimensions go beyond standard bariatric specs — giving patients genuine room to move, which is exactly what therapy-focused bathing routines require. A distributor can advise on suitability for your specific therapy program.
Do TR Equipment bathing systems support infection control and safe patient handling compliance?
Yes on both counts. All models feature smooth, non-porous surfaces compatible with hospital-grade disinfectants. The TR-900 Stainless goes further — specified for burn units and high-hygiene environments where surface durability and cleaning protocols are most demanding. Optional integrated cleaning systems are also available, supporting fast disinfection turnaround between patients without manual wipe-down of every surface. On the compliance side, height-adjustable bathing systems are a recognized safe patient handling intervention under OSHA guidelines, giving facilities a documented equipment-based control for caregiver musculoskeletal risk during bathing routines.
