Whitehall 15 Gallon Whirlpool with HydroLift Lifting System

The Whitehall 15 Gallon Whirlpool with HydroLift Whirlpool Lifting System combines the WHE-15-M mobile extremity whirlpool with the HL-15-M HydroLift to create an adjustable hydrotherapy system for professional rehabilitation, physical therapy, occupational therapy, sports medicine, and healthcare environments.

The 15-gallon stainless steel whirlpool is designed for hydrotherapy involving the lower leg, calf, foot, ankle, hand, wrist, forearm, and elbow. The additional tank depth and length provide more treatment room than a smaller foot-and-ankle whirlpool while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for clinical treatment areas.

When paired with the HydroLift, the whirlpool can be raised or lowered to support more practical patient positioning and clinician access. The adjustable configuration can help reduce excessive bending while making it easier to observe the treatment area, assist the patient, and accommodate different chairs and treatment arrangements.

Complete 15 Gallon Whirlpool and HydroLift System

This listing includes both components required for the adjustable hydrotherapy setup:

• Whitehall WHE-15-M: 15-gallon mobile extremity whirlpool
• Whitehall HL-15-M: HydroLift designed specifically for the 15-gallon whirlpool

The HydroLift raises and lowers the whirlpool tank itself. It is not a patient lift and should not be used to lift, transfer, support, or position a person.

Adjustable Hydrotherapy Positioning

The Whitehall HL-15-M HydroLift is designed specifically for the dimensions of the 15-gallon extremity whirlpool. It allows the tank to be raised or lowered according to the treatment area, patient position, seating arrangement, and clinician preference.

Raising the whirlpool can provide improved access when treating the hand, wrist, forearm, elbow, foot, ankle, calf, or lower leg. The adjustable height may also make it easier for clinicians to observe treatment, assist with extremity placement, and prepare the tank between sessions.

The manufacturer lists the maximum HydroLift assembly height as 53 inches. The whirlpool rim may be raised to approximately 36 inches, depending on the selected position and system configuration.

Upper- and Lower-Extremity Hydrotherapy

The WHE-15-M is an extremity whirlpool designed for treatment of the lower leg and lower arm. Its 25-inch-long, 13-inch-wide, and 15-inch-deep tank offers room for multiple extremity treatment positions.

For lower-extremity therapy, the tank may be used for the foot, ankle, calf, and leg below the knee. For upper-extremity treatment, it may accommodate the hand, wrist, forearm, arm, and elbow, depending on patient positioning and the clinician's treatment plan.

Mobile Hydrotherapy Without Permanent Plumbing

The WHE-15-M mobile extremity whirlpool does not require a dedicated plumbing connection. Its standard reversing turbine can be used to pump water through the supplied pump-out hose and into an appropriate sink or floor drain.

Heavy-duty locking casters support smooth movement when the system needs to be relocated. During normal treatment, the whirlpool and HydroLift should remain stationary. Before moving the combined system, the whirlpool should be emptied and lowered to the floor so the unit can be repositioned using the whirlpool casters.

Warm-Water Whirlpool and Cold-Tank Use

The Whitehall 15 Gallon Mobile Extremity Whirlpool can support both circulating warm-water hydrotherapy and cold-water immersion. For cold-tank use, the turbine assembly and thermometer can be removed from the tank.

The turbine and thermometer can then be reinstalled when circulating warm-water treatment is required. This versatility allows rehabilitation professionals to use one compact tank for different clinician-directed hydrotherapy protocols.

Benefits of the Whirlpool and HydroLift Combination

Improved Clinician Access

The HydroLift allows the whirlpool to be raised from a lower position to a more accessible working height. This may reduce excessive bending and make it easier to monitor treatment, assist the patient, and reach the tank during setup and cleaning.

Flexible Extremity Positioning

The adjustable tank height supports different treatment arrangements for the upper and lower extremities. Clinicians can position the whirlpool around a seated patient, treatment chair, or other clinical setup based on the area being treated.

More Capacity Than a Foot-and-Ankle Whirlpool

The 15-gallon extremity tank provides additional length and depth compared with the smaller 10-gallon model. This makes it better suited for treatment of the calf, lower leg, forearm, arm, and elbow while still supporting foot, ankle, hand, and wrist therapy.

No Permanent Plumbing Required

The mobile whirlpool can be used in treatment areas with access to an appropriate water source and drain. The reversing turbine and pump-out hose allow used water to be discharged into an available sink or floor drain.

Warm- and Cold-Water Versatility

The removable turbine assembly and thermometer allow the tank to be used for cold-water immersion as well as circulating warm-water whirlpool treatment.

Durable Stainless Steel Construction

The whirlpool tank is fabricated from heavy-duty Type 304 stainless steel for strength and durability in professional healthcare environments. The smooth stainless steel surface is also easy to clean and sanitize as part of routine facility maintenance.

15 Gallon vs. 10 Gallon HydroLift Whirlpool

The 15-gallon HydroLift whirlpool provides a longer and deeper treatment tank than the 10-gallon model. Its 25-inch-long and 15-inch-deep interior offers additional room for the calf, lower leg, forearm, arm, and elbow.

The 10-gallon model is primarily suited for the foot, ankle, and lower leg and may be preferable where floor space is more limited. The 15-gallon model is a better choice for facilities that need greater flexibility for both upper- and lower-extremity treatment.

HydroLift System vs. Standard Mobile Whirlpool

A standard mobile extremity whirlpool remains at a fixed tank height. The HydroLift system adds vertical adjustment so the whirlpool can be raised or lowered according to the patient position and treatment setup.

The HydroLift configuration may be preferable for facilities that frequently treat seated patients, perform both upper- and lower-extremity therapy, or want to improve clinician access to the tank. A standard mobile whirlpool may be sufficient when height adjustment is not needed.
