Offering exceptional value without compromising performance, the Alera is a cost-effective and ultra-efficient bathing system perfectly suited to care home or assisted living environments. The Alera comes with powered seat traverse and has an integral leg-lift system to assist with bathing transfers in and out of the bath. Its unique leg-lift facility provides full leg support throughout the transfer process and also eliminates the need for carers to lift a bather's legs up and over the side of the bath. Compact enough to fit into the space of a traditional style bath, the Alera's remarkably long internal length and extra-wide seating area also ensure outstanding levels of comfort. For bathers with more diverse needs, the Alera comes with a range of options, including:

  • Auto-fill technology - labour-saving, temperature-controlled auto-fill system automatically fills the bath to a pre-set depth. Includes tamper-proof functionality for enhanced safety and protection
  • Hydrotherapy air-spa system with 14 jets - delivers a gentle, therapeutic massage to bathers
  • Sound system - Bluetooth® compatible audio system for added bathing ambience and stimulation
  • Chromotherapy system - multi-coloured LED lighting visually enhances the bathing experience
  • TMV3 controls maintain a safe, comfortable pre-set water temperature, reducing any risk of scalding
  • Stylish, chrome shower system with easy-to-use hand control
  • Footboard - Ergonomic, two-position footboard ensures bathing safety is maximised and comfort is never compromised

FAQs

Discover clear and honest answers to your frequently asked questions.

What are the benefits of a power-assisted bath?

A power-assisted bath provides ease for both users and carers alike. They offer a safe, long-term solution for individuals with mobility challenges, plus customisation options such as air spas and chromotherapy lighting to enhance the experience. Power-assisted baths are specifically designed to allow carers to assist users with minimal physical strain, plus they streamline the bathing process in busy, care home environments.

Should I choose a non-assisted or assisted power bath?

An assisted power bath is designed for users who need help from a caregiver or family member during bathing. These baths typically include mechanisms such as powered seats and bathing platforms and integrate with mobile hoist systems. This allows caregivers to support their families or clients in an easy and effortless way for everyone involved.

On the other hand, a non-assisted power bath is designed for users who can bathe independently but may still need some assistance from built-in features. These baths include powered mechanisms such as seats or doors that make it easier for users to enter, exit, and bathe independently without needing help from another person.

Should I choose a bath lift or a power bath?

Choosing between a bath lift and a power bath depends on your needs, preferences and budget. Bath lifts offer a cost-effective solution and allow you to keep your current bath, simply enhancing its accessibility. However, they do not provide the same levels of comfort as a fully integrated power bath. Still, they can be an ideal temporary, short-term solution during recovery from illness or accidents.

Power baths offer a more comprehensive, all-in-one solution with strong, built-in features such as powered seats, doors and spa options. They are better suited to those with limited mobility who want a long-term, safe, independent, enjoyable bathing experience.
