The soothing tranquility of Japanese hot springs may be a world away, but DXV, part of LIXIL, is bringing this luxurious water experience home to bathrooms across North America. The Aqua Moment Drop-In Airbath with Waterfall from DXV offers a relaxing waterfall that envelops the bather’s shoulders in the comfort of warm, flowing water. Drawing on the Japanese heritage and expertise of the company, LIXIL developed the system behind this tub to offer an indulgent feeling of a deep soak while requiring less water to provide the sensation of being fully submerged in water without requiring an oversized tub.
As a curtain of warm water cascades over the shoulders, a chromatherapy system adds a cycle of eight rich, soothing colors of light to the bathing pool. Designed to complement the massage effect of the waterfall and provide deeply relaxing, full-sensory enjoyment, the tub’s airbath system features 360-degree air jets offering a choice of classic, high-pressure and deep massage settings. Leaning back against the waterfall’s comfortable headrest, the user can let go and unwind as an inline heated air blower keeps the water pleasurably warm for the duration of the bath.
Unlike standalone hydrotherapy tubs, the Aqua Moment features a convenient drop-in design, providing flexibility to suit bathrooms of all sizes. The tub features a sleek, zero-edge profile for a clean look and highlights a minimalist design with contoured lumbar support for the bather’s comfort. The Aqua Moment also incorporates the permanent EverClean Airbath 360-degree system, which prevents mold and mildew from forming in the air bath’s circulatory system. This technology helps to keep the pipes cleaner than other tubs, offering a more hygienic experience.
