A tip up seat that can get out of the way when not needed is the best solution in my opinion. With this bathroom the area directly in front of this system should have been incorpoated into the shower area. It looks as though it could have been easily a larger 5 foot by 5 foot shower area. I've been building curbless showers for many years and have always opted to use the full potential of the room to create a larger shower. If one of the goals of a bathroom remodel project is to create more workable space then these units miss the mark.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-525072113106085566.post-24266381021813499702011-11-18T14:15:03.739-05:002011-11-18T14:15:03.739-05:00Lauri:

When you install the seated shower, your installer should put the shower controls within easy reach for the person sitting on the seat. You're right -- in this picture they are not in a convenient spot.1 Call Bath Solutionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11398809991911876604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-525072113106085566.post-30865216365715889292011-11-18T10:06:58.961-05:002011-11-18T10:06:58.961-05:00If one is seated on the built-in chair, how does t...If one is seated on the built-in chair, how does the water get turned on/off, or the temperature regulated? That's why lots of us like the kind of chair that is movable, or a shower head that is mounted with the control features on the side wall. This stuff makes a lot more sense if you LIVE it, rather than just design it and sell it.Lauri Sue Robertsonhttp://www.disabilityawarenessconsultants.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-525072113106085566.post-59005485233151963002011-11-17T13:36:13.131-05:002011-11-17T13:36:13.131-05:00Hi Maggie--of course there is a solution if you li...Hi Maggie--of course there is a solution if you live in California. You can call most home modification companies and tell them you want the American Standard Seated Shower System. If you contact me at Gflowers@1cbs.biz once I find out where you live, I will see if there is an AIP near you.1 Call Bath Solutionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11398809991911876604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-525072113106085566.post-72734330755631518792011-11-16T23:02:03.222-05:002011-11-16T23:02:03.222-05:00If we don't live in one of those states, is th...If we don't live in one of those states, is there a solution for this issue.
