Freestanding bathtub - what is worth knowing before buying?

Wanna wolnostojąca - co warto wiedzieć przed zakupem?

When the day comes to an end, what thoughts come to mind most often? Is it not by any chance a relaxing bath in your beloved bathtub and a comfortable bed? Regardless of whether it is a downpour outside or a warm day... The pleasure derived from washing yourself is always the same.

Kora sang: "The bed is a magical place - whispers, screams and laughter. Here is the place for happiness. Here is the place for sin." The same can be said about the bathtub.

The bathtub is the perfect place. Here you break away from worries and problems. Here you plan your future "steps" (life, professional). Here you indulge in delightful immersion in water at an ideal temperature and full of your favorite scents (liquids, bath bombs, bath salts). And sometimes you just treat it a bit instrumentally, to literally "wash away the dust of the day". But even in such a case, it is worth choosing a unique bathtub. To turn an already trivial activity into a celebration of life. Mindfulness in the bathtub? Why not? It is possible if you decide on freestanding Ravon bathtubs.

Bathroom with freestanding bathtub. Designer aesthetics of current works of applied art. Is a freestanding bathtub practical (and not just beautiful)?

Ravon. Although we are a small Polish manufacture, we make your greatest dreams come true. For years, we have been decorating houses, apartments, hotels, etc. with the most perfect, stylish and unique bathroom ceramics. For us, "individual approach" is not a phrase, but an everyday occurrence. We do everything to make your bathtubs 100% what you dreamed of.

Imagine such a view. Evening, your favorite music in the background. You immerse yourself in foam. Elbows resting on the edges of the bathtub. Sounds like a movie, doesn't it? You would like to repeat it at home, but what about those elbows, since you usually had a built-in bathtub placed right next to the wall. Don't you think it's time to change that? After all, bathing is a relief not only for the body, but also for the mind. So it is worth celebrating it as comfortably and beautifully as possible. And "natural circumstances", thanks to us, can be truly unique. Visualize the desired relaxation (placement of bathroom ceramics, view in front of you, etc.) and start looking for the perfect bathtub on our website.

What do we propose?

Round shaped bathtubs (for large bathrooms, for two people and for cosy ones):

  • classic and minimalist MODERN (for large bathrooms, bathing rooms),
  • with a wide GENESIS edge (an edge ideal for holding cosmetics and with the possibility of installing batteries in it. Additionally, you can use the RAVON AIR function - massage with color therapy),
  • graceful and ascetic SPACE .

Another option is a bathtub with a "cut" (one) edge - SENSUAL WALL . Perfect for placing against a wall, with the possibility of an additional RAVON AIR option and personalization. With the option of building a battery or even containers for liquids into the edge.

The next type are bathtubs with a raised backrest (for those who like long relaxation):

  • inspired by the AMBIENTE canoe (with optional RAVON AIR equipment, ideal for tall people),
  • our hit based on the calla flower EUPHORIA (RAVON AIR optional),
  • similar to a tulip calyx, with two raised edges TULIPANO (RAVON AIR in an additional variant),
  • ergonomic and excellent WISTERIA (with RAVON AIR as an option). We have two variants: WISTERIA 174 or the smaller, compact version of 160 cm.

Before you dream away and make a purchase like a freestanding custom bathtub , check if you have the option of installing it. Fantasies are fantasies, but reality can bring you down to earth.

This type of bathtub needs some space. You can't cover it with tiles and squeeze it into a corner. Measure exactly how much space you have under it. Remember that (prosaically) you need a bit more space to clean around it.

Since such bathtubs are rarely placed right next to the wall, it is worth considering space for a cabinet, a bath shelf, and a table on which you can place all the necessary bathing products.

Freestanding bathtubs like to have some distance from other equipment. Then they are the most convenient to use (entering and exiting must be comfortable and safe) and they are the most pleasing to the eye with their beauty.

A freestanding bathtub requires a freestanding faucet (exceptions are bathtubs with a wide rim – GENESIS and SENSUAL WALL). Unlike a built-in bathtub, it requires pipes placed in the floor. Therefore, before buying a bathtub, you should install a new installation with hot and cold water. The drain hole should be located as close to the sewage system as possible. Additionally, remember that the sewage system works on the principle of gravity, so the elements must be arranged with a 2% slope in relation to the vertical.

Design. We do not offer a product such as a freestanding bathtub on legs. Although we know that it works perfectly in classic and retro interiors, we focused on simplicity and minimalism of shapes, so that you can "go wild" in a different way - by personalizing them.

Possibilities, possibilities...

Of course, classic white still reigns supreme. But as Ravon, we allow you to use your own color palette and RAL, if you have such imagination. Thanks to this, you can match the bathtub and harmonize it (or make it contrasting) with the rest of the room. Bathroom ceramics that match one of the walls? Sounds good, right?

Another important factor in a freestanding bathtub is the quality of the material it is made of. Acrylic is most often used and not necessarily of good quality (to reduce costs).

We don't have this problem. We make bathtubs from QualTec composite:

  • easy to clean,
  • renewable,
  • non-yellowing and non-flaking,
  • resistant to abrasion, UV rays and temperature changes,
  • and at the same time super hygienic and easy to keep clean.

Once our bathtubs are heated, they maintain the temperature for a longer time than acrylic bathtubs.

You can finish your dream bathtub in PureStone matt, Marmonit gloss or PuroMetal metal (copper, gold, tin, brass). If you want, add a hand-made sentence, drawing, print, graphic.

Freestanding bathtub with hydromassage ? For us, this function is fulfilled by Ravon Air – massage and color therapy in one.

On our website, choose a model that delights you. Choose its color from a wide range. Decide whether the bathtub should be matte or glossy. Or maybe with metallic elements or completely metalized? Describe all this to us and decide what else we should paint on it.

If you combine a freestanding bathtub with a washbasin from the same series, you don't have to add anything else to create the true effect of "HOW BEAUTIFUL!!!"
