: The weight of the tub is not a consideration, but a plastic one will almost always weigh less than a cast-iron one. The bigger factor is how much water will you put in it, and how many people. Larger tubs are almost always filled to the brim with water, and a six foot tub, depending on its configuration can be a multiperson unit.
I do know the weight of the new tub (800 lbs, according to American Standard). I was wondering more about how close that will be to the weight of the tub that was there before, which was the 5' cast-iron model.
Thanks for your time!
