The Main Practical and Technical Reasons Why You should have a Shower Unit
A shower unit is a wonderful thing to have in the bathroom – anyone who has ever taken a shower in a cubicle knows what advantages there are to be gained. Having said that, even those who have experienced it may not know what the true (and often hidden) benefits of a shower unit are. As a matter of fact, it’s only when you own (and take care of) one that you get the full picture. Wondering what makes a shower cubicle so great relative to all other options? Here are the main practical and technical reasons why you should have a shower unit.
You decide the way it’s made
There is a variety of choice out there – in all shapes and sizes, in different colours, and with various amenities and properties. The perfect choice is bound to be out there. In case, however, you need something more personal, or something that fits in better with the surroundings of your bathroom, the cubicle can be made to order so it fits your needs, and your needs specifically.
Easy to install
Cubicles that are manufactured and sold as a unit are very easy to install – the manufacturers understand they have to make allowances and make it so it can fit practically anywhere. Most cubicles are designed to fit around a standard tray, and they are quite easy to set up. In addition, there are shower cubicles which leave one side open, making it even more flexible.
According to everyone’s budget
There are some cheap ones, there are some truly expensive ones, and the rest are somewhere in between. You are sure to find a shower cubicle that fits your needs when it comes to lifestyle and budget.
Easy to maintain
Once the shower cubicle is installed, it is very easy to maintain and clean. First of all, the materials are designed with maintenance in mind (so they should reject dirt naturally). Secondly, they are so designed that any run-off takes its natural course (hence, dirt is concentrated in few places). Usually, a regular rub-down makes it sparkling again.
Of course, we should also mention that the shower cubicle has advantages on two other important fronts: they are cheaper in the long run, and they are healthier. They are cheaper in the long run because it requires a lot less energy to clean, and a shower consumes less water than a bath. They are also healthier, because (unlike with the bath) the used water, carrying the dirt and grime, runs down the drain right away. Hygienically speaking, it’s superior. So take a look at your bathroom, take your measurements, and see which model would fit best with your lifestyle.
