Feature Range – Carron Baths
Still based at their original site on the banks of the River Carron in Falkirk Scotland, Carron is in fact one of the oldest manufacturers of baths here in the UK, still innovating after 254 years in business! One of these developments has been the patented material Carronite which is used in the production of their baths and is stronger than any other conventional bath or panel which is made from acrylic today. Carronite baths and panels, when properly installed, will last for a lifetime, keep water in the bath warmer for longer, and covered by a thirty year guarantee.
A wide range of baths is available from Carron in a number of distinct and different designs, all of which are manufactured offering the use of the Carronite material, four of these are featured here. The Carron Celsius is truly modern in looks but also features advance technology in the form of the unique overflow bath filler, a rectangular clicker waste and has a sleek sharp and modern look to it, this is a super strong and scratch resistant bath with a luxurious 300 litre capacity and is only in Carronite, which is guaranteed for 30 years. The bath measures 1910 x 910 x 610mm and is supplied with a single continuous panel.
Carron Urban 1700mm Rectangular Bath is a bathtub that is simple in design and is offered as something that can be easily accommodated into the smaller bathroom due to the slim edges. This design ensures that although the bath has a spacious feel when bathing because of the slim edges overall it is modest in size. This particular bath can be offered in standard acrylic if cost is an important factor, but is still available in Carronite with the advantages that this material offers. The bath measures 1700 x 725 x 540mm and has a capacity of 224 litres.
Double ended baths are becoming a standard feature to many modern bathrooms today having the advantage of not having taps at and waste positioned at one end so bath time for a couple of kids, or adults, does not present any problems. The Carron Equity bath has all these features and it is available in two sizes, 1500 x 540mm and 1700 x 540mm in left or right handed versions and the taps can be wall or deck mounted to suit. This bath is also offered in standard acrylic as well as Carronite.
The answer for bathrooms that may have insufficient room for a separate shower enclosure is the shower bath which gives extra room end one end of the bathtub for easy overbath showering. Attractively curved at one end, the Urban Shower bath allows enough room to shower comfortably whilst maintaining the aesthetics of the tub. Importantly, the Carron Equity shower bath is supplied with a screen, this shower bath package provides all you need for both a bath and a shower, is offered in standard acrylic or Carronite. These shower baths are offered with a slip resistant surface.
