Corner Showers - A Space Saving Choice

Modern bathrooms are sometimes very small, and a conventional shower stall can take up a lot of space. You can reclaim some of that much needed space in your small bathroom by installing a corner shower unit. Corner showers take up less room in a bathroom than you would imagine. Your bathroom will look and feel twice as large once you have installed one of these innovative beauties.

A Wide Selection

There is a wide variety of sizes, with the smallest measuring only 30 inches! This is small enough so that even the tiniest bathroom can enjoy the convenience of having a shower. There is also quite a variety of styles and options for corner showers. You can choose a basic shower, or a fancier style that features multiple shower heads, and also doubles as a steam bath.

When your home has a small bathroom, you are rather limited in the types of modern fixtures that will fit into it. Many older homes have this problem, as the bathroom was not a place to relax and regroup as it is today. It was used for necessities only, and so there was no need to have a lot of space. Today, it is commonplace to use a home bathroom as if it were a spa. Consequently, space is needed for fixtures which fit the spa theme.

Features You Can Include

You couldn't get any more luxurious than a corner shower than includes a steam shower, acupuncture massage features, its own florescent lighting, and even a telephone! It comes in sizes as low as 38x38 and 40x40, which should fit perfectly in even the smallest of bathrooms.

There are also corner showers that have been designed to simulate the feeling you would get if you were showering in a tropical forest. These showers have multi-jet sprays for the whole body. Can you imagine how soothing it would be to take a shower to music? You can get corner showers that have built-in speakers, allowing you to install any sort of sound system you want to them.

Installation

Corner showers are usually self contained, easy to fit and to install. Normal installation takes an hour to an hour and a half. They are easy to clean, as the surface repels most dirt and grime. The faucets and other controls are simple to figure out and to use.

If you choose a corner shower cabin that has a door instead of a curtain, you will find that the doors on the cabin fold inwards, and glide smoothly. These doors can be beautiful, and can be had in a clear style, a frosted style, or prettiest of all, etched with an artful design. Corner showers are designed to be leak free and maintenance free for life. Most come with a very good guarantee, some as long as 25 years.

It is easy to make your small bathroom more useable by installing a corner shower instead of a bathtub. Why let your bathtub dominate the limited space you have? You'll be surprised at how much room you will have once the bathtub comes out! And, you can still sit down to wash yourself, as you do in a bathtub. Corner showers can be customized with seats and many other amenities, like shelves.

Corner showers are trendy. Their space-saving capabilities are sure to be utilized more and more in the years to come.
