Shower enclosures and cubicles have become a more common feature in the modern home. These cubicles and pods, after all, are compact and can fit any size of bathroom, and they are often loaded with features such as hand-held showers, rain shower heads, and even body massage jets. For anyone wanting to transform their experience in the shower and make their shower time a lot more pleasant, modern shower cubicles and pods are an obvious choice. If you’re still not convinced, here’s a list of reasons why pre-built, modular shower cubicles are more popular today.
- A lot less time and effort
If you get a shower pod, installing it takes a lot less time and effort. You can spare yourself the trouble of tearing down walls, putting up tiles, setting up additional plumbing, and so on. Most shower pods and cubicles today are ready to fit into an existing bathroom’s plumbing and pipe work, and it often takes less than a day to have one installed. Plus, you’ll save some extra money on installation because you don’t need to have a professional plumber work a long time to set it up.
- A quick shower to refresh and cleanse yourself
A shower is better at refreshing yourself than a bath, simply because with the shower, all the dirt is washed away from the body. When you stand under a shower, you will immediately wake up and become energised – and all it takes is just a few minutes before you’re ready to face the day. If you don’t have much time to prepare in the morning, having a shower can be a big help. This is also true if you have young children or teenagers in the household – everyone takes a lot less time in the bathroom.
- A solution for limited space
Space is at a premium today, and many homes just don’t have enough space. If you have a tiny bathroom, a shower cubicle or pod is ideal since it doesn’t take up too much space and can fit into a corner or against the wall. You can even opt for sliding doors to save on space, although there are also pivot doors and hinge doors. Space is also important if you have only one bathroom in your home, since there’s an increased chance that more than one person will be in the bathroom at one time, particularly in the morning.
- Enhanced efficiency whilst showering
Many shower cubicles and pods come with features that enhance their efficiency/. Some have built-in seats, whilst others have shelves where you can place your bath items and toiletries (this is especially handy, since you don’t need to install shelving anymore). Others, as mentioned, have body and massage jets and hand-held showers, making for better comfort and efficiency in the shower overall.
