Domestic Hydrobaths
Often we come across domestic pet owners who want to own their own hydrobath and as such this section is devoted on ensuring you are buying a hydrobath for the right reasons.
The decision to buy your own Hydrobath is often based on sound money saving reasons that only you can answer. Also some dogwash operators who operate busy rounds often are limited to the amount of time they can spend at each stop and consequently a domestic pet owner may feel that ultimately they can spend more time and use their own consumables in order to affect a better result.
In order to wash a dog properly it needs to be undertaken with several elements in mind - the most important one being the ability to rinse the dog.
Domestic Hydrobaths generally carry a lot less fibreglass in the mould this way the end price you pay is indeed relevant to the activity the bath is likely to see.
As a rule the less fibreglass a hydrobath has in its construction the cheaper in the theory the bath will be. The only problem with this is that the hydrobath will ultimately be weaker in design. If the bath is likely to be subjected to constant use or indeed is expected to see a lot of dogs passed through its shell then consideration needs to be given as to what sort of bath you should opt for.
Sure you can pick up a bath for $900 and fingers crossed it will last a long time however what if the bath begins to deteriorate after 12 months of use? Will the necessary repairs needed cost more than the bath?
In its simplest form a hydrobath will generally come off the same mould and carry the same components as all other professional baths but in order to save dollars on the design and overall structure the hydrobath will need to have a price variable altered.
Cheaper pumps and wiring simply don't exist so the only variable which can be changed is the amount and quality of fibreglass used. By changing this variable the manufacturers can cheapen the end price point and eventually pass on the savings to the purchasers.
This is by no means a bad thing - so long as you are honest in your intentions and you do not want to wash dogs for a living.
