True Ofuro™ Tranquility Japanese deep soaking bathtub was inspired by ancient bathing traditions and re-interpreted with a modern solid surface crafted from the brand's technologically advanced AquateX™ material and incorporated an ultra-quiet low-flow/high efficiency heating system so the bather can enjoy a fully immersed hot soak for longer. Included among the multitude of features we built into this innovative, compact 51.5" L x 36.25" W x 33.75" H bathtub are: - 1.5kW (USA)/2kW (Europe/Int'l) water heater with ozone disinfection - Bluetooth audio system - digital keypad (with LCD temperature display for the US) - underwater LED chromotherapy system - discreet integral slot overflow & matching AquateX™ waste cover - ergonomic seating & sculpted head and neck support - teak wooden shelf

Custom cabinetry, mirror frames, trim and railing was built around the Asian inspired theme of this large spa-like master bath. A custom deck with custom railing was built to house the large Japanese soaker bath. The tub deck and countertops are a dramatic granite which compliments the cherry cabinetry and stone vessels.

A traditional Japanese soaking tub made from Hinoki wood was selected as the focal point of the bathroom. It not only adds visual warmth to the space, but it infuses a cedar aroma into the air.

The Two-Person Japanese Soaking Tub from DiamondSpas.com was made out of stainless steel and at 4' high it requires two steps behind the tub to enter/exit. The tub fills from the ceiling for added drama! Don't worry about bathing in front of the window, as the window glass fogs with the switch of a light.
