Odd shaped shower

18 years ago

Would you please weigh in and even post pictures if you have an odd shaped shower? So far all the showers I have seen are built into a corner, and mine will not be. Here is the rough layout:

{{gwi:1394987}}

It will be framed in 1/4 inch glass with the back wall tiled. It was suggested to build a wall ledge on the left side (glass topped)to create a corner to put the shelf I want. Originally I wanted a bench but I am told that will take up too much space and I will be glad to have the corner shelf instead. I want it to be walk in and the guy I had look at the plan yesterday suggested I have a small ramp at the entry to make it handicap accessible, in idea I find intriguing. He also said he would use a Schluter pan (?) but after reading some threads here I question this because the drain is not and will not be in the center of the shower. Am I confused about that?

I am planning to use the Moentrol Three Function transfer valve (T4113 is the part number) with the Easy Clean XLT single function shower head (6303) and a hand shower attachment also (not certain which one.) I have not ordered this yet so if you have another option that will provide a strong shower, and the option of concurrent hand shower use or independent hand shower use, I'd love to hear it. I want the ability to use either the shower head, or the hand shower, or both at the same time and this is the setup I am told that will allow this. I also want to keep the controls simple, and want to avoid separate thermostats for each.
