Abstract: A combination tub and shower for installation in a home as a unit, an enclosure formed of a generally horizontal bottom wall and a substantially vertical sidewall extending upwardly from the bottom wall to a height which is greater than that of an adult human being so that the enclosure can serve as a shower stall. The sidewall has an opening formed therein which is spaced a substantial distance above the bottom wall so that the lower portion of the enclosure can serve as a tub for an adult human being. The opening serves to permit ingress and egress of a human being with respect to the shower stall and the tub. A vertically extending wall member is secured to the enclosure and extends outwardly from one side of the enclosure and has a frontal surface which faces in generally the same direction as the opening in the enclosure.
