Product Information
Full details
The Vidalux Pennington Easy Access Walk-In Bath is an ideal solution for individuals with limited mobility who require a safe, dignified, and comfortable bathing experience. It offers a low-entry threshold and a secure front-opening door for easy access, paired with a deep, elevated seat for a relaxing soak. While it significantly improves bathroom accessibility, users should note that the included handheld shower head is intended for seated use only and is not a substitute for a full-sized wall-mounted shower system.

Troubleshooting
Water leaking from the door area
Check the door seal for debris or soap buildup and ensure the locking mechanism is fully engaged.
Water draining slowly
Ensure both 40mm copper waste outlets are clear of obstructions and the drain pipes are free of clogs.
Difficulty operating the door latch
Clean the hinge and latch mechanism to remove any calcium or mineral deposits, then apply a silicone-based lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber to ensure the dual 40mm waste outlets are correctly connected to your existing drainage. The bath is supplied with universal panels, offering flexibility in how the unit is finished within your bathroom space. For ongoing maintenance, clean the acrylic surface and the door seal with non-abrasive household cleaners. It is essential to periodically inspect the door seal for debris to maintain a watertight fit. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could degrade the integrity of the seal or the surface finish.
