A Modern Steam Room

Posted on June 6, 2019

There are plenty of people who want to add a steam room in their bathroom remodeling plans. This is because the current lifestyle trends in our time do not normally allow us much free time for leisure. The average person tends to have difficulty finding time to go out and relax as they used to. What most people do now though is, they spend their time unwinding at home, in their own private getaway.

What better way to truly relax than to have your steam room in the comforts and privacy of your own home. Such is the reason that people consider getting a steam room in the first place. However, it can be tricky to install and will need a lot of planning before integrating it in your bathroom remodeling plans. Here are a few things to take note of:

Precautions

Use materials that are particularly waterproof and will be able to resist hot steam. All the surfaces should repel moisture and must be able to withstand extreme temperatures. The surfaces should also have good traction or else it will become slippery within the steam room.

Drainage

These must be included in your bathroom design as it will guide water for proper disposal or reuse. Steam rooms generate a lot of water droplets that need a point of exit.

Size

The size of your bathroom will determine the size of the steam rooms. On that note, the bigger your steam room, the bigger the steam generator will have to be.

Be sure to hire an expert as installing a steam room is definitely no DIY job. But, there are prefabricated plug and play steam rooms available that will not require much technical work and can fit in almost any bathroom design.
