The steam shower enclosure has gained immense popularity with home owners searching for a modern and therapeutic appliance for their bathrooms.
Although now a common feature for the home these ingenious showering
appliances were until recently an expensive form of therapy found only
in exclusive hotels, gyms and spa retreats. It is really only through
the advancements in technology that the price of these amazing devices
has decreased making it become an affordable asset for the home.
For those who may have experienced a steam room, the steam shower is a
concept very familiar in use as it is created in the same form as a
shower enclosure. If you are unfamiliar with any of these devices then
in short the steam shower cubicle is manufactured in the same shape as a
shower cubicle and the same showering abilities. The difference being
that the steam shower cubicle is produced within a self-enclosed cubicle
and houses it’s very own steam generator. Each system comes fully
fitted with a variety of additional features that can consist of LCD
television, stereo or music system, radio, speakers, hands free
telephone and mood enhancing lighting that is all controlled by a remote
or touch screen panel. These additional gadgets are fitted within the
constraints of the cubicle to enhance your enjoyment and these are just
one set of the many features that come integrated within the interior.
The original concept revolved around a shower enclosure that was
created for hygiene purposes. However as manufacturing practices started
to improve it was not long before these devices became more and more
complex. This soon led to the creation of the steam shower system we
know now of today.
The whole idea was to produce a showering system that would provide
you with the ultimate experience and so manufacturers started
introducing a combination of elements that would allow you to savour the
time spent within the shower cabin. So amongst the remote controlled
gadgets you were also introduced to a vast selection of health giving
attributes and therapeutic items. Items such as body massaging jets were
integrated to provide you with a sensual body massage, foot and calf
massaging system offering you a comfortable way to relieve aching feet. A
small, yet powerful steam generator that sits in the base of the unit,
this enables you to enjoy the opportunity of savouring the treatment of
steam.
Whilst not all of these features are on all steam shower
models, as with most products, features are changed and upgraded over time.
AquaLusso have taken some common seen features out of their products in favour
of higher quality components and improved visual appearance. Foot massagers,
whilst in theory these are a nice item to have, they are generally poor in
performance and a hindrance inside your shower. AquaLusso did a large amount of
customer research on their products to realise that QUALITY is the customers
key focus and most are attuned enough to discard products with 'wizz-bang'
lists of gadgets that they will not use or break all too soon. The same seems
to apply to lighting. Tray lights, tower lights and ceiling. It is adequate
enough to have a ceiling light to provide cabin lighting. Many cheap branded or
unbranded shower sellers choose to have lights fitted all over their shower.
Again this may look impressive in a carefully staged picture, but in reality
customers do not use them all beyond the initial first few weeks of the showers
use. Another consideration is the access required should one of these bulbs
fail. We know that LED lights are longer lasting, lower power consumption, but
cheap products often have poor quality of circuit boards and this leads to
failure. So how would you access the lights fitted in the low step shower tray
? Our guess is the only way is to take the whole shower to pieces as access to
the areas needed is simply not possible any other way.
Most of all these remarkable cleaning cubicles are created for the
user to be able to relax and unwind at any time they wish, all within
the confines of their very own bathroom.
