The overall shape of your bathroom and its design has to be kept in mind while shopping for a shower cubicle. There are two types of shower cubicles-the open cubicle and the closed one. Open shower cabins partially cover the shower zone and there will be a shower part or a door between the existing walls of the bathroom. Closed shower cabins are completely enclosed on all sides including the top with a roof which prevents outflow of steam and slows down condensation. Even though the cabin is more expensive, it is much more comfortable and greatly enhances the visual appeal.
The body panels of shower cubicles are made from diverse materials such as pig-iron, steel, ceramics, artificial marble and also of synthetic materials like acrylic and quaryl. Quaryl is the latest derivative of acrylic. All these materials have their own characteristics and advantages. Pig-iron panels are steady and rigid, but the disadvantage is that they get hot if used for too long. Panels made of steel sometimes vibrate when a forceful jet of water his it. Ceramic made panels can easily crack up, if used carelessly. Acrylic panels are beautiful to look at and easier to clean but are not durable. Quaryl is more or less same as acrylic, but its surface does not allow dirt to accumulate. Marble is the best and the most convenient material, being durable, convenient, perfect and diverse looks due to the availability to marble of different hues, structures and shades around us. The only disadvantage of marble is that is the most expensive of all the options available.
The doors of shower cabins are generally made of glass. This glass can come in different types and forms- transparent, matte or rough.
High end shower cubicles are not only used for taking a shower, but also for massages, sauna and as therapeutic salons. The number of water jets can also vary in different cubicles.
