Vaulted Ceiling Fixture?
Comments (3)Our vaulted ceiling MB also did not have ventilation fan, but we added when we remodeled. Yes, the chandelier will definitely be wonderful in the MB. If you are remodeling we were able to place an in-line (Fantech, I think) vent in a nearby attic space, then put a vent in the shower area & also run a light/vent combination on the same vent in the WC. As some have suggested we also put on a timer so we don't have to remember to turn off. To complete the lighting picture we placed sconces by the mirrors & recessed lighting in the ceiling. (We also added a skylight with the remodel.) I have no idea how we functioned on the small amount of light we had from the initial chandelier -- it was mounted low, but still . . ....See MoreSteam shower in bathroom w/VERY hi vaulted ceiling-glass ceiling?
Comments (3)I got the glass through a local shop. My situation was different, as only one wall, the "front" door wall, was glass. The other three walls were kerdi and tile. The sloped glass ceiling was captured in the walls on three sides and clear silicon was used to seal the remaining side to the front wall of glass. I'm not sure what type of specific seal was used on the door. It might have been clear vinyl. If you do a search or ask at the glass shops, it might also help if you refer to it as a "raked" (sloped) front wall of glass. Actually, lemme see if I can get a quick google hit... Found one at Wilson Glass. Not exactly what you're looking for though. Using something like that with a sealed transom overhead would work and be the lest expensive. Having the front wall as a single piece of glass with the door cutout of it would be $$$$$....See Morelight for vaulted ceiling in bathroom
Comments (0)Has anyone put a vaulted ceiling in their bathroom? I am in the process of doing so and am wondering how to handle lighting above the shower stall. Did you put in a light in the shower area or just use the light in the center of the room? I am also concerned about moisture on the ceiling above the shower since I won't be tiling it. Has anyone had problems with that? Thanks!...See Moreshowers in bathrooms with vaulted ceiling
Comments (9)Here is a rough drawing of the roomsince the plumbing worked best going the length of the shower, and by code an exterior wall would lose at least six inches inside the shower they added a wall to the left of the doorway to house the shower fixtures. In my mind orginally that wall was going to be glass and the room ceilings would be a few feet higher than my glass enclousure. Once we decided to place plumbing five feet from the exterior and add a wall it made sense to lower the shower ceilings to a slope with the highest point at nine feet. Here is a picture of the plumbing wall during construction Where the paper is is the entrance to the bath room. The wall juts in the middle of the 13 foot long entrance wall.The shower shower ceiling is three feet lower than room's highest point but you can not tell. I am sure I am not explaining it right. We basically built an alcove shower instead of an open two sided glass one....See MoreMark Bischak, Architect
