A shower enclosure is a useful addition to a bathroom. It helps maintain hygiene and efficiency and is stylish and functional. It is also a good option for the elderly, disabled, and differently-abled people. Children can also benefit from it. And what is more, it is easy to clean.
Frameless Glass Shower Enclosures
There are many advantages to having a frameless glass shower enclosure in your bathroom. The first is the sleek, modern look that frameless glass offers. The sleek design also gives your bathroom a spa-like feel. Another advantage is that frameless glass will add instant value to your bathroom. Finally, if you plan to resell your home, this enclosure will give you good value for your money.
Frameless glass shower enclosures are typically 3/8 to 1/2-inch thick glass and utilize custom-made brass hardware. They are also more expensive than framed enclosures and require a higher installation. Also, they are more challenging to install, as the tiled walls are each unique. Additionally, most “tub decks” are not perfectly level, so frameless glass shower enclosures require careful planning and installation.
Walk-In Tubs With Shower Enclosures.
When it comes to walk-in tubs, the best option is accessible and safe. These models come with seats and handrails for safety and a low threshold to minimize the risk of slipping. They also feature anti-slip flooring.
Choosing the right walk-in tub is vital to ensuring the safety of your family and guests. Most walk-in tubs come with hydrotherapy jets, chromotherapy lighting, and heated seating. Hydrotherapy helps relieve bodily aches and pains and is particularly helpful for people who have arthritis. Walk-in tubs are also extremely deep, allowing you to completely immerse in the water without stepping over high walls.
Space-Saving Design
Shower enclosures have become increasingly popular as a practical, space-saving solution for small bathrooms. Most people are turning away from their bathtubs and replacing them with a shower. Besides being convenient, showers also use much less water than baths, making them environmentally friendly. They also take up much less space in a bathroom than a bathtub, which allows you to maximize the space in your bathroom.
Shower enclosures can be custom-made to fit your bathroom’s unique proportions. A glass enclosure can be shaped to reflect natural light and can be designed to blend with the rest of the bathroom.
Easy To Clean
Unlike regular bathtubs, shower enclosures are relatively easy to clean. You can apply a mild cleaning solution to them. You can use baking soda and water to get rid of stubborn stains. If you use vinegar, you must remember that it will discolor the natural stone. Mixing baking soda and water will make a paste that you can use to clean the shower enclosure. After applying the paste, wipe the enclosure with a soft cloth.
A glass shower enclosure is the easiest to clean because there are no handles, gaskets, sliding systems, or openings. Rather, the shower enclosure consists of a single large glass panel. To clean it, you should first remove any silicone residue that may have been collected on it.
