How Panel Showers can save on Bathroom Reconstruction Costs


When do organizations install panel showers in restrooms?

Typically, most facilities wait until they are remodeling a restroom before installing shower units.  Layouts are improved and new fixtures are added to make the facility more accessible and comfortable.  Showers are now being included in these new requisitions for a number of reasons.  Factories find that it improves health and safety when they provide workers with an opportunity to wash off any toxic substances that may get on their skin during work hours.  Stores that require employees to change into uniforms are starting to install showers for sales associates to use prior to changing.  Any outdoor facility, such as a park restroom, also can benefit from installing showers for users who are biking, swimming, hiking, or spending a great deal of time in the hot sun.

How easy are panel showers to install?

Yes.  They surface mount to any available wall space.  This eliminates the need to cut into the wall and prevents any damage to the surrounding wall area that would cost additional funds to repair.  Individual wall showers can be installed in alcoves or in individual shower stalls.  A variety of privacy options can also be installed at a cost that fits any budget.

  • Larger budgets can afford shower stalls and doors configured for maximum no site privacy.
  • Midrange budgets can install partitions with shower curtains.
  • Small budgets can still create user privacy with curved shower rods that arc around the shower assembly and allow the user to pull a curtain around the entire shower area.

What impact do individual wall showers have on plumbing costs?

They eliminate the need to cut into the wall and plumb its interior.  All individual wall showers come preassembled with all necessary plumbing built into them.  Valves and pipes are self-contained within the surface mounted panel and only require a connection to the water supply.

Do you have ADA compliant shower units?

Yes.  ADA panel showers are made with a pivoting shower head attached to a flexible hose.  If you are only installing one or two showers in your restroom remodel, you might want to go ahead and install our ADA units because the pivoting shower head is something that any user in any condition can benefit from.

To build shower stalls that are completely ADA compliant, ask us about special shower partitions, grab bars, and shower seats that you can easily install along with your wall showers.
