Frequently asked questions
Why should I buy a steam shower?
A steam shower is a great investment for whole body health and relaxation. It combines the benefits of a regular shower with the therapeutic effects of steam, promoting stress relief, improved circulation, and respiratory health. With a steam shower, you can enjoy spa-like experiences in the comfort of your own home, enhancing skin health and muscle recovery. It is also energy-efficient and can add value to your home.
How does a steam shower work?
A steam shower works using a steam generator to heat water until it turns into steam. This steam is then released through a steam head into the shower cubicle, filling the space with warm, moist air. The cubicle is designed to trap the steam, creating a humid environment that surrounds the body. The steam temperature and duration are controlled manually by the user.
Where should I install a steam shower?
A steam shower should be installed in a well-sealed, moisture-resistant cubicle that can effectively retain the steam. Ideally, it should be placed in a bathroom with enough space to accommodate a shower stall that has proper insulation and waterproofing materials, such as ceramic tiles or glass panels. Ventilation is important, so the room should have an extraction fan to manage humidity after use. It is essential to ensure access to plumbing and electrical connections for the steam generator, which is usually located near the shower but outside the wet area for safety.
