Who lives here

Water hardness

Water hardness varies by supplier. Ask your water company (or have your well tested) for a current hardness figure, which most utilities publish in an annual water quality report. Desert water across the region is commonly hard, so ask your installer how to keep jets and door seals free of scale.

Permits

Permits for a walk-in tub depend on the work. Plumbing changes inside walls, a new water heater or a new electrical circuit usually need one. In Golden Valley, ask Mohave County Development Services (for unincorporated areas). A licensed installer normally pulls the permit for you.

Paying for it

Original Medicare usually won't pay for a walk-in tub. Rural homeowners 62 and older with very low incomes may qualify for USDA Section 504 grants; check your address on USDA's eligibility map. Veterans can look at VA HISA grants. See all ways to pay.
