Showers – Saving Space during Bathroom Design
Bathrooms are not the biggest rooms in a house. In fact, unless you are living in a mansion, chances are that you have to watch how you move in your bathroom to avoid hitting the toilet, the basin or the bath. When redesigning rooms within the home, or renovating at some point, many individuals prefer to substitute the bath with a shower. Not only do they save on water, but there’s a bit more room to move about in afterwards.
Enclosures
In fact, the only part of a shower that really consumes space is the enclosure. This enclosure prevents water from splashing all over your floor, and keeps the air nice and warm until you have finished washing. It shouldn’t be uncomfortably small, and should provide you with enough space to move around in the bathroom.
One other feature that should be kept in mind is that, unlike a bath, the enclosure doesn’t have to follow any set installation direction. In most instances the only condition is that it should be ideally positioned to ensure that the water connection can be made, and that the head (attached to the connection) points accurately within the enclosure. Other than that, you’re free to have a rectangular, square, or even a round enclosure.
Economic Luxury
One other advantage these units offer is that, while they are helping you save space, they can be customised to furnish you with a shower which is a source of bliss – or at least economical, like the electrical unit. It heats water independent of the geyser, and is pretty conservative when it comes to water usage. Unfortunately flow is often lacking, which means it’s not so much a daily option as it is one when the geyser packs up.
Power and combined units provide a bit more oomph when ejecting streams of water, which means a bit more water, more heat and therefore also a bit more luxury. They can be furnished with different types of heads to regulate the flow of water – some of which are capable of providing jets of water that have a massage-like effect on the body.
