 CONSTRUCTION OF WHIRLPOOLS
Century Marble's whirlpool/tubs are a composition of
approximately 80% refined marble (granite or onyx) combined with polyester resin and color
pigments.
Tub surfaces are gel coated 20 mil, thick as compared to
fiberglass and acrylic which is usually much less. The Century gel coat surface is highly
stain resistant for long lasting durability and ease of maintenance. The material is
easily repairable and fire rated. The product is 3/4" thick and very dense, resulting
in its being quieter than cast iron, fiberglass or acrylic, when fitted with a whirlpool.
Your Century Marble whirlpool will be a source of comfort
and pleasure to you for years to come. Our systems have been designed for maximum
therapeutic value. Each whirlpool is equipped with six to twelve hydrajets, a timer, one
or two air controls, anti-vortex suction, and UL listed pump. Before delivery, the
whirlpool system is completely installed and water tested in our factory by trained
personnel,
- Pump: Super-quiet 3/4 or 1-1/2 horsepower,
self-priming, self-lubricating, and UL listed. Pump stand is foam insulated from the
ground to eliminate vibrations and sonic damage to floors or tile.
- Timer: A 30 minute wall-mount timer is
standard on all whirlpools. At the end of the pre-set time the action ceases
automatically. For even more convenience, an optional deck mount switch is offered (with
or without special water level sensor).
- Piping: The piping system is constructed of
rigid, schedule 40 P.V.C. pipe which has been tested and is a top performer.
- Connections: Whirlpool system joints are
bonded with a special welding solvent that creates watertight joints adding to the
integrity of the total unit.
NOTE: ALL MODELS SHOWN ARE AVAILABLE
WITHOUT WHIRLPOOLS FOR USE AS LUXURIOUS SOAKING TUBS.
SHOWER BASES
Century's shower bases are custom made to your
specifications and can be made in most any shape and size including neo-angle.
The bases have a textured floor and are designed with a slight slope for drainage. All
custom shower bases are provided with a splash shield above the base to prevent leakage.
PANELS AND ACCESSORIES
Century Marble provides complete shower packages to
harmonize with your bathroom design. A shower coordinated with your whirlpool and vanities
will add the finishing touch to your bath ensemble. Century's seamless shower bases and
wall panels will never crack, peel, blister, or leak and offer a dramatic improvement over
ceramic tile or fiberglass. All shower bases, walls, seats and ledges are custom designed
to your exact specifications. Showers cab be converted into an in-home steam room by
installing a home steam generator.
Century's shower panels are made to fit the space in
varying heights. The panels are 3/8" thick and can be glued directly to the drywall.
Corner (cove) trim can be ordered to dress out the inside corners. Recessed shower caddies
provide ledges for soap and various toiletries. See our "Accessory Sheet"
showing photos and dimensions of our recessed soap holders, soap/shampoo caddy and shower
shelf.
Century's marble, onyx or granite showers are more than
just beautiful; they are also practical. They are simple to install, easy to clean
and resist soiling, stains and mildew. The beauty of the cultured marble is protected by a
gel coat finish, creating a non-porous sanitary surface that is easy to keep clean with
nonabrasive household cleansers.
