Are you ready to upgrade to a doorless shower? PJ Fitzpatrick can remove your existing shower and install a new one without a door. A doorless shower can be very beneficial, but is it the right choice for your home? The professionals at PJ Fitzpatrick will be comparing the pros and cons of doorless showers to help you make a decision on what is best for you and your home.
Comparing the pros and cons of doorless showers is something you should take your time with before deciding to have one installed. Here’s what you can expect when you install a doorless shower in your home.
One of the main reasons people have doorless showers installed is to reduce fall risk. Getting in and out of a slippery tub can be dangerous. You are able to walk in and out of a doorless shower without stepping over the tub.
Unfortunately, doorless showers offer less room than traditional tubs and showers. You may have less room for products, and it can take some time to get used to bathing in a small space.
While doorless showers may be smaller, there is less surface area to clean. Since there is no tub to step over, you can simply walk in and out of the shower to clean it.
There is no door on the shower, so there is less privacy. Even if you keep the bathroom door closed, it can take a while to get used to showering in the open.
Next to safety, the biggest advantage of a doorless shower is style. Doorless showers look modern and sleek, giving your bathroom a luxurious atmosphere.
The missing door makes it hard for the shower to retain heat, so you may not get the steamy hot shower you are used to. This can be remedied by turning up the heat in the bathroom while you shower or using a small electric heater.
Comparing the pros and cons of doorless showers can help you make the best decision for your bathroom.
