CAST IRON TUB FACTS & CARE
Care and Maintenance
To maintain the luster of your cast iron tub, we recommend using a mild, non-abrasive
cleanser for regular cleaning. The porcelain interior should be towel dried after each
use. Bon Ami® or Zud® are more powerful non-abrasive cleansers that may be used
for tougher cleaning, such as soap scum, minor rust stains or hard water deposits.
To prevent the accumulation of standing water under your tub base be sure to seal
between the base and floor with a bead of silicone.
Our cast iron tubs are produced from solid
quality cast iron billets to an average
thickness of 3/8”. They are covered with a
ground coat, followed by 3 layers of Class
AA High Grade covercoat enamel. Each
coat is fired at 900ºC, resulting in a luster
that should remain unfaded for at least 10
years. Tub exteriors are finished with 2
coats of paint over a layer of anti-rust
primer. You can expect 50 years of service
from your cast iron tub with proper care.
Our tubs are subjected to a rigorous
inspection process before being packed in
our specially designed shipping containers
to ensure that they are delivered to our
customers in pristine condition.
