You’ll find practical options for soaking, hydro, air, and microbubble therapy built into Ella’s Bubbles Laydown jetting package, so you can pick the combination that best targets muscle relief, circulation, or gentle cleansing. The Laydown design gives you more interior space than a standard tub, which makes longer, more comfortable soaks and more effective jet placement possible.

Expect configurable air and hydro jets plus a microbubble option that deliver distinct sensations—from deep kneading to soft, skin‑cleansing bubbles—so you can tailor therapy to your needs. The rest of the article breaks down how each system works, what benefits to expect, and how the Laydown form factor supports those therapies.

Overview of Ella's Bubbles Laydown Jetting Package

You get a tub that combines deep soaking, multiple jet therapies, and accessible design aimed at taller bathers and users who need assisted entry. The package emphasizes targeted hydro and air massage, microbubble therapy, durable construction, and practical safety features.

Comprehensive Soaking and Jetting Features

Ella's Bubbles Laydown jetting package pairs a deep soaking profile with three distinct therapies: hydro jets, air jets, and microbubble infusion. Hydro jets target larger muscle groups with adjustable intensity and strategically placed nozzles for back, hips, thighs, calves, and feet. Air jets create a gentler, full-surface massage; controls typically include multi-speed settings and auto-purge to prevent buildup.

Microbubble Infusion adds very fine bubbles to soften skin and aid relaxation; it operates independently from the hydro and air systems. Controls usually allow you to run any combination of systems so you can customize soak temperature, jet intensity, and microbubble flow for therapeutic or relaxation needs.

Accessories such as an independent foot massage, aromatherapy, and chromatherapy often integrate with the jetting package. You should expect user-friendly dials, an in-line water heater for hydro systems, and ozone or sterilization features to maintain cleanliness.

Design, Dimensions, and Accessibility

The Laydown models — including the Ella Acrylic Laydown72 — prioritize bathers who want a longer, deeper platform. Dimensions like 32" x 72" provide a layflat length for taller users; smaller laydown sizes (e.g., 30" x 60") are available if you need more compact footprints. The inward swing tempered glass door reduces external clearance needs while improving sealing and safety compared with outward doors.

Safety features include a low step-in threshold and a textured floor to reduce slip risk when entering and exiting. Optional items such as a glass shower screen and shower kit convert the tub into a combined shower-bath solution if you prefer standing showers. Drain placement options (left or right) and dual-drain technology speed water removal and help with assisted transfers. 

Material Quality and Construction

Ella's Laydown tubs are vacuum-formed from solid acrylic sheets with a white gloss finish for a durable, easy-to-clean surface. Under the shell, a rust-proof stainless steel frame provides structural support. Multiple fiberglass mesh and gelcoat layers reinforce strength and resist flexing over time.

The inward swing door commonly uses tempered glass in a brushed aluminum frame, balancing durability with corrosion resistance. Components such as hydro pumps, air blowers, and in-line heaters are housed to reduce vibration and maintain performance. Expect maintenance-friendly materials and industry-standard warranties for the shell and mechanical systems.

Jet Systems and Therapeutic Technologies

This package combines powered hydro jets, circulating air massage, microbubble infusion, on-board water heating, and ozone sterilization with straightforward controls and safety-focused plumbing. You get adjustable intensity, targeted jet placement, and simple faucet and drain hardware designed for assisted bathing.

Hydro Massage System and Hydro Jets

The hydro massage system uses a dedicated hydro pump that forces water through strategically placed hydro jets to target your back, hips, and legs. You can expect multiple hydro jets (commonly eight in the 30"x60" laydown models) arranged to deliver focused streams that help relieve muscle tension and improve local circulation.

An in-line water heater keeps jet output at a steady temperature during longer sessions, so you don’t feel temperature drop when the pump runs. A hydro massage intensity dial lets you vary pressure from gentle to vigorous without leaving the tub, giving you control over therapeutic depth.

Air Jet Massage System and Microbubbles

Air jet therapy pushes air through dozens of flat, fixed jets to produce a gentler, effervescent massage across larger surface areas like your back, thighs, and feet. Typical air systems include a 3-speed variable control and an auto-purge feature to clear the air lines after use, reducing buildup and maintenance.

Microbubble (Infusion™) therapy complements air jets by delivering tiny bubbles that create a skin-contacting, buoyant sensation and mild exfoliation. The combined air-and-microbubble approach increases blood flow superficially without the strong mechanical pressure of hydro jets, useful if you prefer soothing circulation over deep tissue massage.

Water Sterilization, Heating, and Controls

The system integrates an ozone sterilization module to sanitize internal water paths and reduce microbial growth between uses. Ozone sterilization runs automatically or on-demand to deodorize and lower cleaning frequency, while remaining eco-friendly compared with heavy chemical use.

Controls include an intensity dial for hydro jets and a 3-speed push control for air jets, often positioned for easy reach from a seated position. The in-line water heater provides consistent temp during pump operation; make sure to confirm wattage and local electrical requirements before installation.

Faucet, Drain, and Safety Elements

Faucet options include a 5-piece fast-fill faucet with a diverter lever and a pull-out multi-functional hand shower for seated rinsing and targeted cleaning. Fast-fill faucets reduce fill time, and the diverter routes water between tub fill and the hand shower as needed.

Drain and safety features include an emergency pull-up chain for quick manual door release and textured low-threshold flooring to lower slip risk. Optional extras like a glass shower screen (sold separately) can add splash protection if you plan to use the pull-out shower. Verify model-specific parts (for example LA3272 or similar) when ordering to ensure compatibility with your chosen accessories.
