The Whitehall 27 Gallon Extremity Whirlpool - Mobile (WHE-27-M) is a professional hydrotherapy tub designed for targeted treatment of the upper extremities and lower leg below the knee. Its compact 27-gallon tank and mobile configuration make it well suited for physical therapy clinics, rehabilitation facilities, athletic training rooms, sports medicine facilities, hand therapy practices, and foot and ankle treatment environments.
Constructed from heavy-duty Type 304 stainless steel, the WHE-27-M combines professional whirlpool hydrotherapy with the flexibility to reposition the empty unit between treatment areas. Four locking casters provide mobility, while the reversing turbine can be used to pump used water from the tank into an available sink, floor drain, or standpipe.
27 Gallon Mobile Extremity Hydrotherapy Tub
The Whitehall WHE-27-M is a compact extremity hydrotherapy tub designed specifically for localized treatment. Its tank measures 28 inches long by 15 inches wide by 21 inches deep, providing treatment space while requiring considerably less floor space than larger rehabilitation whirlpools.
Whitehall recommends the WHE-27-M for the upper extremities and lower leg below the knee. Its compact tank design is particularly useful for treatment involving areas such as the hand, wrist, arm, foot, ankle, and lower leg.
Physical Therapy Whirlpool for Extremity Treatment
The WHE-27-M provides professional water circulation for targeted extremity hydrotherapy. Unlike larger whirlpools intended for greater body immersion, this compact physical therapy whirlpool focuses treatment on specific upper and lower extremities while reducing the amount of space required for the equipment.
This professional hydrotherapy tub is well suited for facilities including:
- Physical therapy and rehabilitation clinics
- Athletic training rooms
- Sports medicine facilities
- Hand therapy practices
- Foot and ankle treatment facilities
- Hospitals and healthcare facilities
- Colleges and universities
Mobile Hydrotherapy Tub with Locking Casters
The WHE-27-M is equipped with four locking casters that allow the empty whirlpool to be repositioned between treatment areas. Once the tub is in the desired location, the casters can be locked before filling and treatment.
This mobile configuration provides greater placement flexibility than a permanently installed stationary whirlpool. Whitehall specifies that all water must be completely drained from the tub before the whirlpool is moved.
No Permanent Plumbing Connection Required
The mobile WHE-27-M does not require the permanent plumbing connection associated with a stationary whirlpool. The facility needs a clean water source for filling the tub and access to a sink, floor drain, or standpipe for drainage.
This makes the WHE-27-M particularly practical for facilities that want professional whirlpool hydrotherapy without dedicating the equipment to a permanently plumbed treatment location.
Durable Type 304 Stainless Steel Construction
The Whitehall WHE-27-M tank is fabricated from heavy-duty Type 304 stainless steel for strength and durability in professional treatment environments.
Stainless steel also provides a smooth surface that supports routine cleaning and sanitation between treatments. Whitehall's operating instructions specify that the tub, thermometer, and turbine should be cleaned and disinfected after each user.
Professional Adjustable Whirlpool Turbine
The WHE-27-M features a professional turbine assembly powered by a 1/2 HP jet pump motor. The motor-operated centrifugal pump circulates water within the tank during whirlpool hydrotherapy.
The turbine can be adjusted vertically and rotated to change the position of the water outlet. The pressure control valve also allows the operator to adjust the level of water circulation according to treatment requirements.
Convenient Pump-Out Drainage
The WHE-27-M's mobile configuration uses a reversing turbine and pump-out hose assembly to help drain used water without a permanent drain connection. The discharge nozzle can be directed into an available sink, floor drain, or standpipe and the turbine used to pump water from the tank.
Remaining water can then be removed through the lower drain valve or dried from the tank before the whirlpool is moved.
Whirlpool Hydrotherapy and Cold-Water Use
The Whitehall WHE-27-M provides additional versatility for professional treatment environments. Whitehall states that its whirlpools can function as both traditional whirlpool tubs and cold tanks. When cold-temperature treatment is required, the turbine assembly and thermometer can be removed from the tank.
The turbine assembly and thermometer can be reinstalled when the tank is returned to warm-water whirlpool hydrotherapy use.

Mobile vs. Stationary 27 Gallon Extremity Whirlpool
The WHE-27-M is ideal when a facility wants the flexibility to reposition its hydrotherapy equipment. Its locking casters and pump-out drainage system allow the empty tub to be moved between appropriate treatment locations without requiring permanent plumbing.
Facilities with a dedicated hydrotherapy area and permanent water and drain connections may instead prefer the stationary WHE-27-S. Both provide a compact 27-gallon extremity-focused hydrotherapy solution, with the primary difference being mobility and installation requirements.
Choosing the Whitehall WHE-27-M
The Whitehall 27 Gallon Extremity Whirlpool - Mobile is a strong choice for facilities that need targeted upper and lower extremity hydrotherapy in a compact, movable format. Its stainless steel construction, adjustable turbine, locking casters, and mobile drainage design make it particularly useful for professional rehabilitation and athletic training environments.
