LUXURIOUS SHOWER SYSTEMS IN SMALL BATHROOMS

by Arizona Custom Home Builder on October 16, 2009


Small Bathrooms Can Be As Luxurious as a Large Custom Bathroom

He wanted a large ceiling-mounted rain shower head, she wanted a traditional wall-mounted shower head attached on a sliding bar so the shower head could be raised or lowered.  She wanted a shower head that could be handheld.  He wanted body sprays, she didn’t. Neither husband nor wife could figure out how all of these features were possible in their small bathroom.  Small bathrooms can be a real challenge to design or remodel. 

As it turned out, both husband and wife got exactly what they wanted.  Multiple shower sprays are becoming more and more common in custom homes and bathroom remodeling projects.  In the same space as a tub and shower combination a stand-alone shower can have a variety of shower sprays for true customization.

In our experience as AZ custom home builders, our customers desire more options for body sprays, hand showers, and shower heads.  Though simpler to handle at the time of new home construction, small bathrooms can be remodeled to handle these shower systems.  A good plumber should be available to analyze a home’s plumbing infrastructure and determine the best way to create a dream bathroom.  To handle these multiple water sources, ¾ inch water supply lines may be necessary, thermostatic mixers, special valves may be necessary that are capable of controlling higher flow rates and more devices, and adequate hot water supply.  A homeowner may be interested in using of these shower sprays one at a time, or body sprays and overhead sprays simultaneously, so good planning and a good plumber are necessary to make it all possible. 

Many homeowners are looking for that spa experience at home.  People take less time today to fill up a large tub and then less time to actually enjoy it.  As AZ custom home builders, our customers have often admitted they haven’t used their whirlpool bath since moving in.  In some cases, customers have said they felt like they needed to include one in their custom home for resale value.  Actually, there is a shift away from whirlpool tubs or the garden bath that many builders installed 10 or 15 years ago as more and more people create luxurious shower systems.  The spa experience can be achieved at home with a glamorous shower system.  These can be created with new home construction in large bathrooms, standard sized bathrooms and even for small bathrooms.
