Planning estimates from the sources cited, not quotes. Your installer's written price is the only real number. How we build these ranges.

The series

NCOA groups American Standard tubs into Acrylic Luxury, Gelcoat Premium and Value, Gelcoat Entry and Liberation lines. The acrylic line costs the most and carries the longest shell warranty: 15 years on the shell and 10 on components, versus 10 and 5 for gelcoat. Every line has a lifetime door-seal warranty1.

An in-home price example

NCOA's reviewer received an in-home quote on a Liberation tub: $14,120 for the tub, $500 for a shower package and $3,280 for installation, with discounts offered for buying within 30 days, buying the same day, or paying cash. The same-day and cash prices were lower than the 30-day price. That is a common sales pattern. A good price should still be available after you've had time to think.

Where to buy

Through an in-home consultation, or at Home Depot and Lowe's. NCOA warns that tubs bought on Amazon or eBay may not carry warranty coverage.

Financing

NCOA reports 12-month no-interest financing on purchases over $10,000 with at least 10% down, with 17.99% interest on any balance left after the promotion.

Getting a comparison quote from a local installer

A national brand's in-home price usually bundles the tub, installation, removal, warranty and financing into one number. That is convenient, but hard to compare. An independent local installer can often quote a similar tub, with an outward-swinging door, seat, grab bars and jets, and list each part separately.

To compare fairly with a American Standard quote, ask every company for:

  • The tub's model, size, door direction and seat height.
  • Tub price and installation price as separate lines.
  • What happens to your old tub, walls, flooring and electrical work.
  • The warranty: who honors it, for how long, and whether labor is covered.
  • The price if you don't sign today. Be wary of same-day-only discounts.

Typical independent installation labor runs $700 to $3,0002. More tips are in our guide to why walk-in tub quotes are so high.
