Standard Series vs. Pro Series: Choosing the Right Dog Wash Tub

Choosing a dog wash tub comes down to who will use it, how often and where it will go. Cool Dog Wash Tubs come in two families, the Standard Series and the Pro Series, both made in the USA. Here is how they compare.

The Standard Series: walk-in wash stations

The Standard Series is a full walk-in dog wash station with parallel access and a slide-away stainless steel door, so large dogs can step right in. It comes in two widths:

Both are fabricated with 16 gauge, 304 grade stainless steel, fully welded, with double reinforced front panels, cove molding on all edges and adjustable feet for proper drainage. They are ADA friendly and carry a 10 year limited warranty.

The Pro Series: built for professional grooming

The Pro Series is designed for heavy, all-day use in professional settings. These stainless steel tubs will never rust or deteriorate, and they include a chrome-plated brass faucet with a flexible stainless steel hose that puts continuous spray exactly where you need it, plus a high-capacity hair catching system. There are two layouts:

Which one is right for you?

Choose the Standard Series for apartments, condos, HOAs, hotels, RV parks, doggy daycares and other places where many different people bathe dogs of every size. Walk-in access means no lifting, and the price fits amenity budgets.

Choose the Pro Series for grooming salons, veterinary clinics and kennels that bathe dogs all day, every day, and want professional fixtures and a choice of layouts.
