The easiest way to determine how long and wide your new bathtub should be is simply to go and sit in a few. There are no hard and fast rules about different bath sizes for different sized people, and different shapes will appeal to different people. Longer tubs will often be wider than shorter ones, but some tubs are also built wider to accommodate two people.
As a rule of thumb, an mm tub is likely to be more comfortable for people around 6 feet tall - although that really does depend on the tub as much as it does on your own expectations and willingness to let your knees get a bit cold If you have a continuous flow hot water system this won't make a difference, but if you have a storage tank based hot water system it's a good idea to check its capacity before you go shopping.
Another important consideration when you're thinking about the width of the bath is where the taps will go. If you're planning on installing a wide bath, you need to make sure that the taps are easily accessible to people both inside and outside of the bath. The depth of the tub will also affect how it suits different people, and can make an otherwise fairly short tub comfortable for taller people. A: Congratulations on your plans for your personal space! And these days, bathtubs come in more sizes, shapes, and depths than ever, so the key is determining which will fit both your lifestyle and your square footage.
This configuration makes efficient use of normally limited bathroom space and gives the room a more streamlined appearance. The bathrooms in many homes, particularly older or small homes, are sized to house a standard alcove tub, which is 60 inches long, 32 inches wide, and 18 inches deep on the outside measurements. The size of the inner basin can vary, depending on the thickness of the tub surround, but on average measures 55 inches by 24 inches at the top of the basin, and 45 inches in length and 22 inches in width at the bottom of the tub, due to the slight slant of the tub walls.
Tall bathers are likely to find that they cannot fully stretch out their legs, leaving the tops of their knees poking above the water. The tubs in very small bathrooms are often a few inches smaller in both width and length, but some homeowners with roomier alcoves still prefer to install these smaller tubs to allow for a larger surround that provides more space for bathing necessities.
If you have the space or plan to enlarge the bathroom, an extra-large alcove tub lets the tall bather fully extend his legs, the average-height bather comfortably submerge his torso, the plus-size bather fit comfortably, or two average-size adults squeeze in together.
As a general rule, extra-large alcove tubs are around 72 inches long, 36 inches wide, and 20 inches tall at the outside measurements, providing plenty of room for just about anyone who really enjoys relaxing in the tub. Freestanding tubs , as the name suggests, are not tucked into an alcove surrounded by walls, but instead, are in the middle of the bathroom, or at least a fair distance away from the walls and often serving as a focal point.

While you can, of course, get clean in an ofuro , they are perfect for soothing both body and mind. Small baths generally measure between mmmm in length. The width will usually stay the same as a standard size bath mm.
However, if you have very limited space, perhaps consider a corner bath. Humans have generally grown in height over the past one hundred years, resulting in taller doorways and higher ceilings throughout modern buildings and homes. The average height for a woman in the UK is 5 foot 3 inches, therefore, a large bath would provide more than enough space to spread out and relax.
If you have the luxury of space in your bathroom, why not treat yourself to a bath of a larger size?
