Ella's Bubbles dual drain technology is shown, including the dual 2-inch, four-port drain system and its connection options to a house drain. The video demonstrates how water flows through the drains and explains the easy turn drain handles.
Ella's Bubbles walk-in tubs utilize two oversized 2-inch drains, which is different from the industry standard single 1 1/2-inch drain. These dual drains feature four T-type ports for maximum draining capacity. The video demonstrates water flowing freely from all four ports into a house drain, and images show a drain setup before and after the dual drain system installation.
House drain connection options are explained, recommending a 2-inch main drain for ideal draining, though a T or Y connection into a 1 1/2-inch house drain can be used. Installers determine the best connection side based on the home's drain configuration. The easy turn drain handles also function as dual air vents, which eliminates air pockets and maximizes water outflow. Some Ella's Bubbles tubs feature an oversized single drain with an emergency pull chain, which still uses dual port T-type drain technology.
The dual drain technology is gravity-driven, not a powered pump, so it is not affected by power or mechanical failures. A standard size Ella walk-in tub drains in approximately 80 seconds under ideal conditions. The drain side is opposite the door side; for example, a right-side door means left-side drains and a left-side house connection.
