Bathtubs: the measures suitable for each space

Knowing the dimensions of a bathtub is the first step towards an intelligent and effective bathroom design. Since bathrooms tend to be generally small, to make the environment fully comfortable, the arrangement of the space requires the utmost attention, in particular, to size and shape of the bathtub.

What are the standard dimensions of a bathtub?

Depending on the shape and type of tub, standard bath sizes are variable. For a more traditional built-in, recessed or alcove bathtub, measures are:

  • Length: 140-180 cm
  • Width: 70-80 cm
  • Height: 50-55 cm

Like the other two dimensions, standard depth of a bathtub depends on the shape and model, but is generally between 40 and 60 cm.

Small bathtub measures

Small bathtubs are less common but are slowly gaining approval. The reason is very simple: they are designed to satisfy the fanatics of this complement even in narrow spaces where installing a shower would be the most comfortable and functional choice. Common measures for this type of tubs are:

  • Length: 135-140 cm
