Shower panels are now almost an essential element of every shower cabin. Above all, they transform the bathroom into a small spa. A shower using them is exceptionally pleasant and relaxing. In addition to their practical value, they also serve a decorative function. Thanks to their high aesthetics, unique design, and varied color palette, they give the bathroom a modern look and an elegant character. The original atmosphere of the shower cabin is emphasized by shower panels with LED lighting, while comfort and safety are ensured by panels with a thermostat.
What is a shower panel made of?
A shower panel is more modern, more advanced, and significantly better equipped than a traditional shower faucet. It has a particularly compact structure, in which all shower components are integrated into a single unit. The composition of the shower panel includes a faucet and a set of receivers that, depending on the variant, can have different functions. The simplest models of shower panels are usually equipped with a handheld showerhead. Sometimes, a rain shower is an additional feature.
More advanced designs are equipped not only with a handheld showerhead and multifunctional shower head but also with massage jets. Their advantage is the possibility of adjusting the strength and category of the water stream, allowing for a customized type of massage. When choosing a multifunctional panel, ensure that the set includes all elements (hose, handheld showerhead, rain shower, etc.) so you don't have to select them separately.
Shower panels with a thermostat
This type of shower panel provides maximum comfort and safety during bathing. Thermostatic faucets have heads that regulate water temperature and pressure, while a special lock prevents the temperature from rising above the desired value. This is particularly important in homes with children using such shower cabins.
Shower panels with thermostatic faucets also protect against temperature fluctuations caused by the water being drawn by other bathroom appliances. A single handheld showerhead or the entire shower panel with a thermostatic faucet can also be placed above the bathtub. However, to prevent water from flooding the bathroom, it's essential to secure the bathing area properly. It's best to attach a special shower screen to the bathtub or hang a curtain.
Shower panel with hydromassage
A shower panel with hydromassage function is nothing more than a set that, in addition to a handheld showerhead, is equipped with a rain shower and a set of jets that emit water streams of varying pressure and adjustable intensity. When purchasing, it is advisable to pay attention to their number and arrangement. Typically, panels have between four to eight jets, placed on joints or built into the panel. They should be positioned in such a way that the water can massage different parts of the body, either relaxing or stimulating.
Hydromassage soothes muscle and spine pain, stimulates the senses, improves circulation, and helps combat cellulite. By appropriately controlling the water stream, you can select the type of massage depending on your current needs - from a gentle mist to the soothing touch of enveloping drops, to refreshing jets with a high concentration of water stream.
Modern shower cabin only with an elegant panel
Shower panels are most often installed in a recessed manner. This installation method allows you to conceal part of the fixtures behind the tiles, which makes them take up less space and gives the cabin an elegant appearance. The most popular panel model is made of stainless steel, but it's worth noting that shower panels are produced from various materials, including aluminum, artificial and natural stone, steel, exotic wood, plastics, or tempered glass. Panels also differ in color and texture.
Unique equipment in cabins with rain shower panels emphasizes the individual style of each interior, while elegant furniture and appropriately selected bathroom fixtures complete the overall effect. Thanks to modern and functional bathroom equipment, it will become an essential point in the home space.
A luxurious bathroom is water, light, and sound
The shower space can be arranged in a luxurious way, using a varied color palette of shower panels, ranging from classic chrome, through neutral white, sweet pink, noble gold, dramatic red, extravagant ultramarine, deep red, or many others from a rich color palette.
A futuristic panel with atmospheric LED lighting may highlight the extraordinary character of the shower cabin. It perfectly fits both classical and modern décor of the bathing space, giving it a unique character. It's worth noting that some categories of panels are equipped with radios or MP3 players, which will particularly please avid music lovers. Multifunctional and high-quality panels with appropriately selected faucets will satisfy even the most demanding customers and serve for years.
