Before buy hydromassage boxes , it is necessary to carefully calculate the design parameters taking into account the space allocated for it. The most important thing is to choose the right optimal shape, focusing on the layout of the room, because it can be: semicircular, rectangular, corner.
Types of shower cabins
Progress does not stand still, and the most common everyday objects can drive you crazy with their variety. Depending on the type of cabin, showers are divided into:
1. Closed. Completely separated from the entire surrounding world. They have a “roof” and walls on all sides. Thanks to their many pleasant functions, they are also called shower boxes. They can be equipped with:
• aromatherapy function;
• horizontal or vertical hydromassage;
• “tropical rain” mode;
• Turkish bath;
• contrast shower;
• ventilation;
• voice control, etc.
2. Open. The main difference between such showers is the absence of a ceiling. Also, in them you will not find many modes that are inherent in closed type booths. But there is also a huge advantage – they are very compact and can be installed in the corner of the bathroom.
Let’s take a closer look at the installation of open-type shower stalls. After all, it is he who is most popular and in demand among buyers.
Installation of an open shower stall
As mentioned above, this type of shower does not have a roof or side panels. Often the basis for them is the tiled walls of the bathroom. The following main components of open cabins: a partition, a tray and a shower device (mixer, watering can, etc.).
Before installing a shower, do some basic repairs: level the walls and floor of the bathroom to ensure the necessary waterproofing. The doors of the structure will be attached to the walls using steel hinges.
The booth is located in the corner of the room or in a special niche. But this type of shower can be installed directly on the bathroom floor. In this case, do not forget about the drain pipes; they should be installed with a slight slope of 2-3o.
As you can see, the process is not labor-intensive and does not take much time. But the result is an excellent secluded place to relax and train your vocal cords.
