Whitehall 85 Gallon Sports Whirlpool - Stationary

The Whitehall 85 Gallon Sports Whirlpool - Stationary is a professional hydrotherapy whirlpool designed for athletic training rooms, physical therapy clinics, sports medicine facilities, rehabilitation hospitals, universities, and orthopedic practices. Its spacious sports-style tank accommodates larger patients and athletes while supporting hydrotherapy treatment of the upper and lower extremities, hips, back, and shoulders.

Designed for permanent installation in a dedicated hydrotherapy area, the Whitehall WHS-85-S connects directly to the facility's water supply and drain. The standard high-capacity gravity drain supports convenient tank emptying, while the professional turbine assembly delivers adjustable circulating water for warm-water hydrotherapy treatments.

The turbine assembly and thermometer can also be removed when the stainless steel tank is needed for cold-water immersion. They can then be reinstalled when circulating warm-water whirlpool treatment is required, giving athletic trainers and rehabilitation professionals a versatile option for both warm- and cold-water protocols.

Permanent Hydrotherapy Installation

The stationary WHS-85-S is intended for permanent placement in a dedicated hydrotherapy or athletic training area. Unlike a mobile whirlpool that must be filled and drained using nearby fixtures, the stationary model connects directly to the building's water supply and drain system.

This fixed configuration provides a consistent treatment location and simplifies daily filling and draining for facilities that regularly incorporate hydrotherapy into rehabilitation, sports medicine, or athletic recovery programs.

Warm-Water Whirlpool and Cold-Tank Use

The Whitehall 85 Gallon Stationary Sports 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. These components can be reinstalled when warm-water circulation and water agitation are needed.

This versatility allows athletic trainers, physical therapists, and sports medicine professionals to use one tank for different treatment protocols based on the clinician's direction and the patient's rehabilitation needs.

Benefits of the 85 Gallon Stationary Sports Whirlpool

Shoulder-Down Treatment Capability

The 48-inch-long sports tank provides room for hydrotherapy involving the arms, legs, hips, back, and shoulders. Its size makes it well suited for athletic trainers and rehabilitation professionals treating larger patients and athletes.

Direct Water and Drain Connections

The stationary configuration connects directly to the facility's water supply and drain. This provides a permanent hydrotherapy station and eliminates the need to reposition the whirlpool for filling or emptying.

High-Capacity Gravity Drain

The standard gravity drain supports efficient tank emptying following treatment. This is especially helpful in busy rehabilitation departments and athletic training rooms where the whirlpool may be used regularly.

Adjustable Water Agitation

The turbine assembly can be raised, lowered, and directed toward the selected treatment area. This allows clinicians to position the circulating water based on the body area being treated.

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 tank is fabricated from heavy-duty Type 304 stainless steel for strength, durability, and resistance to demanding clinical use. The stainless steel surface is also easy to clean and sanitize as part of routine facility maintenance.

Stationary vs. Mobile Sports Whirlpool

The stationary sports whirlpool is best suited for facilities with a dedicated hydrotherapy area and permanent plumbing infrastructure. Its direct water and drain connections create a consistent treatment station and simplify routine filling and emptying.

A mobile sports whirlpool is better suited for facilities that need to move the empty unit between treatment areas or do not have a dedicated hydrotherapy room. Mobile models generally use casters and a pump-out hose, while the stationary WHS-85-S uses permanent plumbing and a high-capacity gravity drain.

85 Gallon vs. 90 Gallon Sports Whirlpool

Both the 85-gallon and 90-gallon Whitehall Sports Whirlpools are designed for shoulder-down hydrotherapy and athletic rehabilitation. The 85-gallon WHS-85-S features a 48-inch-long, 20-inch-wide tank, making it a practical choice for facilities that want substantial treatment capacity while conserving floor space.

The best model will depend on the facility's available space, patient population, treatment protocols, and preferred tank dimensions.
