Shower Panel with Multiple Body Sprays?

8 years ago

I am considering installing a shower panel that has multiple body sprays in my large double shower. I ordered the panel I am considering using to see if I like it. I am also contemplating ordering a second matching panel to install on the other side of the shower since there are regular shower heads installed on both sides.

1. What do you think about the shower panel itself? Is it cool? An eye sore? Would it reduce or increase value?

2. What do you think about 1 vs 2 panels?

Note: We are having a frameless glass shower door installed at the walk in opening to help keep the steam in.

Thanks!!

Thanks for all the comments! I think we are leaning towards installing the panel on the left side so it’s less in your face. If after using it we want a second one, we could get it at a later time.

There is a long hose to the panel.

You can walk in and turn on the shower and not get wet (on either side) - it’s that big.

I think the shower door will help at least reduce drafts/keep it warmer in the shower, especially because we have no door between our master bedroom and bath.

Wow! That shower is huge!

I’d just go with one. You can always install a second if you think you want it. I would probably want the option of a traditional shower head, though

If you are going to put it in your shower, I would put it on wall around the corner at other end if that's possible then it won't be so in your face, if you know what I mean

I think it goes with your (humongous) shower nicely.

I like the window

Beautiful shower! I don’t think the jet spray panel is an eyesore at all, but then, I like things that are high tech. Having had body jets in the past, I found I didn’t use them all that often, so I’d get the one, see if you like, and use them, then get the other.

I think it's fine, and two would work. But I do recommend that you have a hand-held shower head mounted somewhere to help with cleaning the shower.

You have to walk all the way in to turn on shower, try not to get blasted by cold water and then walk out while it warms up? And no hand shower? I don’t think this was thought through.

And don’t bother with a frameless shower door at walk in to help keep steam in unless you glass in the entire top (which you will not be able to do) That will be a waste of money.

The panel is cool if you think you’ll actually use it. My concern is that you really need to find a way to turn it on and set the temperature before you’re standing under it. You also need a hand held with a really long flexible hose so you can clean and rinse the entire shower. I don’t think you need a door - you’d have to be in there for quite a long time to build up any steam - also would then be a lot more glass to maintain. And get a squeegee, because you have a lot of glass to keep looking good.

I would have a door as it helps keep in the warmth (which you'll need with such a big shower).

Do your research on the panel you're buying. We installed 2 panels in our shower 2 years ago and the seals are already falling apart. The water sprays everywhere! I'm very disappointed as I loved having the 2 shower panels when they worked.

Better have a 100 gallon tank, or two tankless. Or that’s going to be ev en more freezing after that 3 minutes of hot water is over with. It’ll take 10 minutes just to heat up the tile.
