Yes, most Ella walk-in tubs can be ordered as a soaker: a tub with a door and seat, gravity drains, and no pumps. A soaking package has no jets and no jet holes, and it needs no electrical outlet unless you add the heated seat and backrest.

Models Available as Soakers

• Stainless inward-swing door: Elite, Petite, Royal.
• U-shape outward door: Capri, Monaco, Front Entry, Mobile, Lounger.
• Transfer family: Transfer26, Transfer30, Transfer32, Transfer60, TransferXXL (Soaking is listed on each spec sheet).
• LayDown 30x60 and 32x72 (the LayDown soaker has no therapy controls at all).

Models That Are Always Jetted

• Ultimate, Deluxe, Ultra.
• Big4One and ShaK (digital Air + dual Hydro package).
• Standard, Standard60, Zen, Zen60, Flow (hydro-only platforms).
• Tub4Two, Companion, Escape, and Big4Two always include at least one massage system.

What a Soaker Includes

Everything structural matches the jetted version: acrylic shell on a stainless frame, door and seal, grab bars, textured floor, fast-fill faucet and hand shower, dual 2 inch drains (single on the Front Entry and Mobile), end panel, and the extension panel where offered. Because there are no jets, the LED chromatherapy light is not included; it comes only with dual therapy packages. Soaking tubs are built in smaller runs, so check availability.

Electrical

A plain soaker needs no outlet since the drains are gravity driven. With the heated seat and backrest, the published schematic calls for a 15A 120V GFCI-protected line for the heater alone.

Air-Only and Adding Jets Later

Air-only is offered on the LayDown tubs. Seated walk-in tubs pair air with hydro; our team confirms there is no air-only Transfer32, and older 3052 tubs were sold with air only in combination with hydro. Therapy systems are built into the shell at the factory, so jets cannot be added to a soaker, and air cannot be added to a hydro tub, after purchase. If you may want massage later, choose the package now.

Bath salts? Yes. With no jet plumbing, salts and oils rinse away when you drain.

Different size? No, dimensions, door, and crate size match the jetted version of the same model exactly.

Convert a clearance tub? No, clearance tubs are sold exactly as listed.
