If you've ever traveled abroad and had to shower in sub-desirable conditions, you know the wonderful feeling of returning home to your own nice hot, big shower. Well, showers have become more that just a watering hole, but are now steam enclosures that act more as a sauna than a shower. How do they work? What are the components? What are some options?
Steam showers use a special panel to serve as a multi-function shower. Like traditional shower door enclosures, glass panels secure the shower area. However, with a steam shower, glass panels are floor to ceiling with a special swivel panel installed. This swivel panel allows steam to escape or stay enclosed in the shower area.
The swivel panel is just a small glass panel that uses a special swivel hinge to rock back and forth creating a small opening. Glass panels also use special vinyl gaskets that contain steam within the shower.
The hinged panel is typically placed at the top of the unit, usually at about 80 inches. It can be small, or rung the length of the shower. The design of the steam shower is one that can be discussed with engineers to create the perfect steam shower.
It is important to open the panel after showering so that moisture does not stay contained within the shower enclosure. This can lead to problems with mold and mildew. Proper maintenance is key to having a long lasting shower door enclosure.
Start having the shower of your dreams today and invest in a steam shower door enclosure. Not only does it enhance your showering experience, but it adds the value of the home. |
