The majority of the surfaces of a walk-in shower are level, and there are few corners or areas where filth or grime can accumulate. In comparison to a traditional shower enclosure, cleaning the glass walls and tiled floors of a modern shower enclosure takes less time because there are fewer crevices and crannies to scour.Suitable for any bathroom
The International Residential Code specifies a minimum footprint of 30" by 30" for a walk-in shower. The National Kitchen and Bath Association suggests a larger dimension, specifically 36" by 36". The most common dimensions for rectangular walk-in showers are 36" by 48".
Which Should You Choose, Walk-In Showers or Walk-In Bathtubs?
Typically, walk-in baths are considered safer due to the reduced danger of falling. However, this largely depends on your mobility and level of comfort. Both walk-in showers and walk-in baths are equipped with safety features that reduce the risk of slipping and collapsing, making them an excellent alternative to conventional tubs and showers.
Since there is no shower enclosure to trap the steam from the warm water, a walk-in shower can be draughty or chilly on a winter day (and especially in a large bathroom). This may not deter you if you shower swiftly or don't mind your showering being a little on the stimulating side.
