Home Depot Is Improving Seniors’ Quality of Life with 24 Month Financing
Mar 14, 2017
Everyone knows that walk-in tubs are expensive by nature due to the delicacy involved in manufacturing them and adding versatile therapeutic features. With Home Depot's 24-month financing plan, older adults can now cover the cost in small monthly increments.
March 14, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —
A report conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau from 2008 to 2012 found that 15.7 million of older adults had at least one disability. And 10.5 million of them reported that they struggled to walk or climb. This is the consequence of the muscles naturally atrophying as we grow older, but all studies in the field of anti-aging measures show that seniors can overcome this through regular exercise. What’s astonishing however is a study published just last September called, “Review of Hydrotherapy & Balneotherapy”, in which a rheumatologist and physiotherapist, Dr. David Marshall and Fiona Russell, express the benefits of hydrotherapy for all populations, including seniors. Across the board, seniors with limited mobility due to arthritis, back pains, diabetes, and any other disease or condition that resulted in a sedentary lifestyle experienced an increase in mental capacity, healing, balance, life expectancy, and the ability to move.
This is leading more and more older adults to own in-home hydrotherapy products like whirlpools, low-threshold showers, walk-in tubs, swimming pools, etc. The problem is most households can’t afford such luxury products. Luckily there is a new financing plan issued by Home Depot that could solve this problem for seniors.
The Benefits of Walk-in Tubs
Seniors who want to soak regularly and independently but can’t due to the regular bathtub’s high walls and unaccommodating design find great results with walk-in tubs. The common safety benefits in almost all units on the market are the following:
• Low step-up (0” – 6” high from the bathroom floor)
• A non-slip and often textured floor
• Wide door with left or right orientation for left or right-handed seniors
• ADA-compliant seat
• Wheelchair accessibility (depending on the tub’s design elements).
Hydrotherapy, known for its health benefits as was just demonstrated, is incorporated by walk-in tubs in the form of standard filling and soaking, an air bath system, and whirlpool massager jets. Other luxury upgrades can include aromatherapy and chromotherapy to facilitate the health benefits of hydrotherapy.

12 – 24 Month Long Financing Scheme
Before a senior can get with this program, they must first get approval for a Consumer Credit Card by Citibank. The rest of the conditions include:
• The offer being valid from the 3rd to the 15th of this month,
• An annual percentage rate (APR) of 17.99 percent to 26.99 percent,
• And a good credit score.
The length of the plan will depend on the senior’s walk-in tub of choice. Purchases of $299 up to $998 can be financed for 12 months, $999 up to $1,998 for 18, and $1,999 or more for 24 months.

One participant, who 15 minutes earlier ranked price first, said no discount was large enough. Nothing changed except how we asked the question. Something...
