Whitehall 45 Gallon Extremity Whirlpool - Mobile

The Whitehall 45 Gallon Extremity Whirlpool - Mobile (WHE-45-M) is a professional hydrotherapy tub designed for targeted treatment of the upper extremities and lower leg below the knee. Its compact footprint, 45-gallon capacity, and mobile design 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-45-M combines professional whirlpool hydrotherapy with the flexibility of a mobile treatment unit. Four heavy-duty locking casters allow the empty tub to be repositioned, while the reversing turbine provides convenient pump-out drainage without requiring a permanent plumbing connection.

45 Gallon Mobile Extremity Hydrotherapy Tub

The Whitehall WHE-45-M combines a compact extremity tank with the depth needed for targeted upper and lower extremity hydrotherapy. The tank measures 32 inches long by 15 inches wide by 25 inches deep, providing treatment space for areas such as the hand, wrist, forearm, foot, ankle, and lower leg.

Compared with larger rehabilitation whirlpools, this 45-gallon hydrotherapy tub provides a more space-efficient solution for facilities primarily performing targeted extremity treatments.

Physical Therapy Whirlpool for Extremity Treatment

The WHE-45-M is designed for professional hydrotherapy applications involving the upper extremities and lower leg below the knee. Whitehall specifically recommends this model for lower-leg and arm treatment, while the extremity tank design accommodates areas including the foot, ankle, hand, wrist, and arm.

This professional physical therapy whirlpool 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-45-M is equipped with four locking casters that allow the empty whirlpool to be moved between treatment areas. Once positioned for use, the casters can be locked to help prevent movement during treatment.

This mobile configuration is particularly useful for facilities that need hydrotherapy in multiple treatment areas or do not have a permanently dedicated whirlpool location. The whirlpool must be completely drained before being moved.

No Permanent Plumbing Connection Required

As a mobile whirlpool, the WHE-45-M does not require the permanent plumbing connection used by a stationary hydrotherapy tub. A clean water source is required to fill the tank, and used water can be directed to an available sink, floor drain, or standpipe during drainage.

This gives rehabilitation and athletic training facilities greater flexibility when determining where hydrotherapy treatments are performed.

Durable Type 304 Stainless Steel Construction

The Whitehall WHE-45-M hydrotherapy tub is fabricated from heavy-duty Type 304 stainless steel for strength and durability in professional treatment environments.

Stainless steel provides a smooth surface that supports routine cleaning and sanitation between treatments, making it well suited for frequent use in physical therapy, rehabilitation, sports medicine, and athletic training facilities.

Adjustable Professional Whirlpool Turbine

The WHE-45-M features a professional turbine assembly powered by a 1/2 HP jet pump motor. The motor-operated centrifugal pump circulates water within the tub during whirlpool hydrotherapy.

The turbine position can be adjusted vertically and rotated to change the position of the water outlet. Water circulation can also be adjusted using the pressure control valve, allowing the clinician to control circulation based on treatment needs.

Pump-Out Drainage for Mobile Use

The mobile WHE-45-M uses a reversing turbine and pump-out hose assembly to simplify drainage without requiring a permanent drain connection. After treatment, the discharge nozzle can be directed into an available sink, floor drain, or standpipe and the turbine can be used to pump water from the tank.

Remaining water can be removed through the lower drain valve, allowing the tub to be fully drained before it is repositioned.

Mobile vs. Stationary Extremity Whirlpool

The WHE-45-M is a strong choice when a facility needs the flexibility to reposition its hydrotherapy equipment. Its locking casters and pump-out drainage system allow the empty whirlpool to be moved between treatment areas without requiring a permanent plumbing connection.

Facilities with a dedicated hydrotherapy treatment area and permanent water and drain connections may instead prefer the stationary WHE-45-S. Both models provide the same 45-gallon extremity-focused tank size, while the primary difference is mobility and installation requirements.

Choosing the Whitehall WHE-45-M

The Whitehall 45 Gallon Extremity Whirlpool - Mobile is a strong choice for facilities that need targeted upper and lower extremity hydrotherapy combined with mobile convenience. Its compact stainless steel tank, adjustable turbine, locking casters, and pump-out drainage system provide a versatile professional hydrotherapy solution without the footprint of a larger whirlpool.
