Frequently Asked Questions


1) Will a tub like this add to my Lafayette home’s resale value?

If you reside in a Lafayette retirement community, installing a walk-in bath may raise the value of your home. It probably won't raise the value of your home. Since changes to your bathroom don't generally raise the value of your home, the price may qualify for the medical expense deduction for tax purposes both federally and in Indiana if the primary objective of the improvements is to accommodate a home to the handicap of the citizen, their partner or dependent living there.

2) Will a tub like this look bad for my homeowner’s insurance in Indiana?

Many upgraded homeowner's insurance policies protect against flooding from your plumbing and appliances. Check with your Lafayette homeowner's insurance to ensure it will cover you against this type of damage. You may require a house adjustment permit from the Lafayette, IN building department to install a bath, particularly when walls have to be eliminated to fit your toilet plans. Above all, if you needed a license and you didn't get one AND somehow your home suffers from damage from the installed walk in bath, your losses may not be covered by your homeowner's insurance. Should you plan on ever selling your Lafayette dwelling, there are lots of buyer beware messages out there that will direct prospective buyers from your house since it does change homeowner's insurance if there have been any developments without licenses. Buyers see the permits and their homeowners insurance as protections on their investments in houses.

3) Is there any additional structural support needed before installation?

Many walk in bathtubs are mounted to a stainless steel welded support frame with leveling feet that is included with your purchased bath. The flooring in the toilet has to have a structural support strength that surpasses the weight of the tub in addition to the weight of the water. Our Lafayette installer will check to determine if it's not whether the floor is level and otherwise, then they'll make use of the leveling legs to adjust the level of the bath. Of course, the prior tub will need to be removed. In addition, the wall or tile in region will have to be removed if replacing.

4) Are there any kits available for installing my own walk-in tub?

Yes, makers do offer do it yourself installations of a bath conversion kit. Depending on whether you have the correct tools and technical familiarity with the tools, it's possible. Yet, lots of times, someone thinks it's definitely going to be inexpensive to buy all the tools that are proper. These tools may be expensive, so ensure you compare the expense of buying all of the tools along with the expense of your time learning how exactly to install the kit with all the cost of a professional setup. If you're someone who does a great deal of home improvements, then the instructions may seem pretty simple. Just make certain that the unit you bought didn't get harmed during transportation and they analyze the unit according to the Maker 's instructions.

5) Do these tubs use more water than conventional tubs?

Yes. A walk in bathtub is not usually shorter than an average bath tub, which comprises about 2 1/2 feet of water on average. Some manufacturers say if a standard shower is 7 minutes that you just use the same quantity of water as a shower that is typical and you also use 7 gallons of water a minute. Many of the walk in baths on the market have a 40-80 gallon capacity. The truth is, many manufacturers recommend that you have a hot water tank that holds at least 50 gallons, though some tubs will operate effectively if you fill them with 40-60 gallons.

6) Will Medicare cover the cost of equipment and installation in Indiana?

Medicare does not cover walk in bathtub gear and installation prices in Indiana, because they're house modifications, not durable medical equipment. Durable medical equipment doesn't contain physical changes to a house, just medical equipment and materials which are used to help a patient in and out of bed or a chair, or use a shower or tub safer and simpler. Consumer Affairs indicates that you might wish to contact Medicare to see if (for mobility safety reasons) a walk-in bath is justified to determine whether the gear may be somewhat compensated. More often than not, it won't be covered by them. But if you're qualified for Medicaid, the system in your state may provide you with some financial assistance for a walk in bathtub. You may be eligible for a Home and Community Based Service (HCBS) waiver to play for certain specialized medical equipment and availability modifications. In case you are a receiver of Medicare and Medicaid, you need to also consider the Dual-Eligible Specific Needs Strategy. Medicaid provides a complete listing of waivers relevant to the elderly that we recommend that you review.

7) What types of financing are available in Indiana if insurance doesn't cover home modifications?

(1) The US Department of Agriculture helps low income and elderly residents of rural areas make house modifications to empower aging in place. The USA Rural Development program is also known as the Section 504 plan, the Very Low-Income Housing Repair program and the RD 504 Loan Program. The modifications may have a walk in tub.

Contact them at http://www.togetherwetransform.org/find-your-local-affiliate (4)There are other alternatives to consider. The Internal Revenue Service may decide your home modification qualifies for tax deductions as a medical and dental expense. This really should not be confused with the Dependent Care Tax Credit, which is used for dependent care expenses incurred by a citizen that was primary to enable them to work rather than caring for their dependent.

In case the member is bed- confined or room - confined some DMEs are considered medically necessary, instead of a convenience. DMEs are considered medically necessary if it is needed for day-to-day tasks and is primarily medical in nature. Since bathing is considered a daily living activity and considered vital, toilet items which are considered medically necessary if a member is unable to bathe or shower without being seated or unable to transfer to and from a bath are listed by Aetna.

11) Do Walk-In Bathtubs Leak?

Yes, they can leak. Another common complaint from people who tried to save cash and bought a lousy quality bath comes from door leaks. When buying a walk-in bathtub, be sure you purchase a lifetime guarantee, because as soon as the door leaks, the tub can't be used by you, until the seal is fixed by you. Be sure that the walk in bathtub is stiff and powerful to avoid any flex that inhibits a water tight door. Also, during the setup process, it is exceptionally recommended that the Indiana installer never lift the bath by the plumbing, as it can result in leaks. Mishandling and also during carrying any damage that may have happened can loosen appointments and cause leakage. Before using the walk in bath, it is important that the bathtub is tested by the installer correctly according to the instruction manual.

12) Will the cost of installation and equipment be covered by my disability in Indiana?

If your impairment was a result of a vehicle or work injury, check together with the appropriate insurance carrier to determine if home adjustments resulting from your IN impairment are covered. Claims that comprise Lafayette dwelling modifications are not inadmissible in insurance settlements. Someone qualifies for Social Security disability benefits when they've worked in work that was insured by Social Security and have a health condition that meets their definition of impairment. If you're injured or on disability, benefits could be covered. Since SSI is a needs-based program as well as an SSI recipient must have limited income and resources, qualification for the Plan for Achieving Self-Support (PASS) allows a person who has a disability to attain an occupational goal. The money that's set aside under a PASS could be used for anything that results in an occupational objective and may be used to cover house modifications through an SSI savings strategy. If you're a veteran, the Department of Veterans' Affairs does offer individual plans that may help you deflect a number of the price. There are Indiana dwelling modification grants which are available that might provide you assistance for the installation and purchase of a walk in bath: (1) the Specially Adapted Housing (SAH) Grant; (2) the Special Home Adaptation (SHA) Grants; and the Home Improvements and Structural Alterations (HISA) Grant. Contact the VA and ask for VA form 26-4555 to submit an application for a SAH or SHA grant. For information on all VA benefits in Indiana call 1 800 827 1000.
