Why go to the spa when you can recreate the experience at home?
More homeowners are splurging on shower luxuries than ever before. The newest additions include things like moisture-sealed showers that are totally enclosed to create steam before you ever get in – and for however long you’d like after you get out. There’s also mood lighting, stereos, and pumps for aromatherapy oils.
Are shower doors going out of favor?
Of course most homeowners still install shower doors but not doing so is becoming more commonplace. With this option, the shower essentially disappears into the room. There’s one big advantage: Smaller bathrooms look much larger and aren’t quite so compartmentalized. However, we’re not sure we’d want to give up on the feeling of privacy a shower door offers.
Step overs aren’t necessary
You know the rim you have to step over when you get into your shower? Have you ever wondered why it’s there? So do designers! The good news is that there are now options that don’t have it at all. They’re called Roman showers and they are totally without a rim. Instead, a gradual slope ensures the water goes down the drain and not throughout the rest of the bathroom. These are great for a lot of reasons but most notably are wonderful in a home where someone uses a walker or wheelchair.
New hot water options are available
Those who’ve lived in large households have likely dealt with a shower that runs out of hot water after two people have had their showers. Others of us know what it’s like to have a shower that takes five minutes to heat up, which leaves the options of getting into a shower when it’s still cold or wasting a ton of water.
Luckily, there are tons of other options these days. At The Stanley Louis Company, we like the tankless water heater, which allows you to have several showers running at the same time, many showers in a row, and it will still heat your other hot water appliances too. What’s more, you get hot water instantly, it uses less energy than other tank heaters, and it lasts for 20 years. They can also run on either electric or gas.
