custom shower details - need advice
Comments (3)we are not planning to tile the bathroom walls - just wall and wood baseboard at the bottom. The vanity goes end to end on one wall, the 2nd wall is the windowed wall, 3rd wall is the toilet and entry and 4th wall is the shower and closet. Thanks for your input - was toying with using the wall tile on the face of the bench. for question 2 - what is typically done, any idea? thanks again!...See MoreSteam Shower questions?
Comments (8)At what height should these be? I am being told that 18" off the floor is the norm, but this sounds low to me. I'm doing a commercial steam room at a hotel health spa right now, the benches for that one are also exactly 18" off the floor. My experience has been 17-19" is the norm. Also, I am being advised to put a Panasonic fan inside the shower (with another one outside). I cannot find any info on this, but wanted to know if anyone else actually put one into the shower itself. Although it's not required, it's a good idea, because it'll help clear the room of moisture that much quicker after using the steam. We will be using the Kerdi method , will this be a problem with the fan inside? Nope! :-)...See MoreMom's Curbless Steam Shower - one more question
Comments (1)I would put the diverter at the point-of-use, next to the showerheads....See MoreSteam shower - success! And a question.
Comments (2)I've not seen an issue like that, even if you had hard water and a water softener. It shouldn't be leaving a mineral residue from hard water. There is the possibility that is could be something like residual grout haze. But that would just be on the tile, not on the plumbing fixtures and shower door too, and it would likely show some sort of "wipe" or "smear" marks on it from the grout clean up. It could also be one of those "first use" things. I'd call Thermasol and ask their tech department....See Morechisue
