How to choose a shower cabinA shower cabin in your bathroom will give you the opportunity to get a little more free space and complement the modern design. But for this, you need to figure out how to choose it correctly.

When choosing, it must be borne in mind that shower cabins have different shapes: square, round and rectangular. In addition, the cabins can be combined with a bath, multifunctional or simple, and also have a sauna.

Before making your choice and making a purchase, you need to pay attention to the sizes. If the size of the cabin is less than 80 by 80 centimeters, then you will feel uncomfortable in it. This is due to the fact that in a smaller shower stall, you will not have room to turn around. But this applies to cabins with a square or rectangular shape. If you decide to choose a round cabin, then in this case, it really can be smaller.

For the manufacture of the main parts of shower cabins, and this is a pallet and sashes, various materials are used. So, in the manufacture of sashes, materials such as tempered glass or plastic are mainly used. These parts of the shower enclosure are very difficult to break because they are made of shock-resistant materials. If, for any reason, it turned out to break the sashes, then there will be no sharp chips left from them.

Tempered glass, people choose less often, because its cost is much higher than the cost of plastic. But plastic tends to grow cloudy over time, in addition, soap stains are very visible on it, which remain after using the shower stall. It's another matter if the plastic is tinted or has a pattern, in which case it will be able to have an aesthetic appearance longer. The highest quality plastic is considered to be made in Germany.

How to choose a shower cabinFor the manufacture of pallets, the following materials are used: enameled metal, steel, marble chips, faience, marble, acrylic. The pallets made of steel and enamelled metal are almost identical. Their positive qualities include lightness and low price. The negative qualities are noise, strong deflection, lack of the necessary strength. The most common type of pallets is acrylic. They serve for a long time, are durable and lightweight. However, before buying, they must be checked for secure attachment, since they tend to bend very strongly under body weight. Faience pallets break very easily, but at the same time, they are stable and do not bend. And finally, the highest quality and therefore the most expensive type of pallets is marble. These pallets do not break, are practically silent and keep heat for a long time. Their negative qualities, perhaps, can be attributed only to the price, but they are worth it.

The difference between ordinary shower cabins and multifunctional cabins lies in their configuration. They can be equipped with telephone, radio, Turkish bath, hydromassage and other useful features. Let's take a closer look at such functions as a sauna and hydromassage.

Shower cabins equipped with a Turkish bath function have not four, but five doors. The fifth sash closes from the top so that steam does not escape. In this shower cabin, it is possible to maintain a constant temperature, 35-45 degrees. When buying a shower stall with this function, the seat is the first thing you need to pay attention to. It should be convenient for you, since you will have to be practically motionless for about 20 minutes in order to thoroughly steam. In addition, you need to pay attention to the presence of a fan that will evenly distribute heat throughout the cabin.

When choosing a shower cabin with such a function as hydromassage, you need to study in detail which nozzles are installed in it. The more nozzles there are, the more types of massage will be available to you. All these nuances will need to be checked with the seller. Also, find out what the water pressure is in the pipes of your house. It should be over 1.5 bbl. Otherwise, you will get a regular shower.

Follow these tips, and the question of choosing a shower cabin will not be difficult for you.
