Built-in Whirlpool Bathtub
A drop-in tub with six to twelve side wall jets, a pump and a control panel. Popular on projects; the deck and the access panel have to be planned together with the tub.
Six to twelve side jets
Water jets set around the wall of the tub, driven by a pump through concealed pipework.
Drop-in, deck finished on site
The tub sinks into a platform and only the inner shell shows, so the deck can run in the same stone as the surround.
Access panel required
The pump has to stay reachable, so the service opening is planned together with the tub.

A built-in whirlpool is a tub body with six to twelve jets set into the wall, a pump and a control panel, dropped into a deck or platform so only the inner shell shows. Two things decide whether the installation works: the cut-out has to match the tub exactly, and a service access panel has to be left in the deck so the pump stays reachable. The deck has to be detailed at the same time as the tub.
