The steam unit must have a dedicated 240v line to power the unit and an exhaust fan will need to be installed and vented outside.                                                   The new shower drain most often needs to be moved to compensate for the shower bench.

Can Natural stone tiles like marble or granite be used in a steam shower?

We are asked that question frequently so we added another section below to address the question.

It also is good to make sure that if you do decide to use marble or some other type of stone tile that the shower ventilation is good and vented outside helping to reduce mold and mildew growth.

INFORMATION FOR A STEAM SHOWER INSTALLATION

SOME THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND - 

Today, with all of the stress that we face each day, being able to come home every day to a relaxing session of steam and bliss is a great source of stress relief. The trend toward budgeting is gaining traction, and more and more people are setting aside money for a  steam shower installation.

WHAT STEAM UNIT SHOULD I PURCHASE? - It is essential to conduct thorough research in selecting your steam unit. Some people who have invested time, money, and effort into a bathroom renovation have made the mistake of purchasing a lower-end steam unit only to discover that the unit cannot be fixed until the unit is replaced.  And finding the right people to service your unit is a subject in itself. Some Steam Generator Options to consider - THERMASOL - STEAMIST

WILL A WINDOW WORK IN A STEAM SHOWER? - Yes, it is possible. As long as your window is a double-pane window. Most newer homes do have double pane. No heat out and no cold in.

IS INSULATION OF THE STEAM SHOWER NECESSARY? - Yes, especially when the walls or ceiling is an exterior wall. Insulation ensures that the heat remains in the shower and doesn't escape outside and guards against a cold chill coming in.

WHAT ABOUT A SMALL SHOWER, CAN A BENCH BE BUILT? - A corner seat can be built in the shower, which can take up a lot less space. Or if you purchase a folding seat to save space.

The tile for your steam room or steam shower can be any kind you choose for the tile installation there is, however, a variation in the heat efficiency of each of these tiles with regards to the steam generator to be installed for your bathroom shower installation project.

 

Quality porcelain tile and the best ceramic and glass tiles are the most efficient tiles that are non-porous and retain the heat with the best results. Similarly, you can install natural stone as well, but natural stone requires additional maintenance with its sealing every year or two depending on how often the steam unit is used. In addition, for a large steam room or steam shower, it may be wiser to choose non-porous porcelain tiles as mentioned above. 

The steam shower featured is a 12x24 porcelain wall tile that is set horizontally with the grout lines matching in straight lines. Installed over the surface of the steam shower are the natural stone tiles which are mostly used on the ceiling and shower pan installation. Because the shower is smaller than most, the minimal use of natural stone tiles does not affect the efficiency of the steam generator. A larger unit could be adversely affected.   

Whatever choice you make for your steam room or steam shower installation update Action Shower Pan & Steam Shower Company will install your tile with careful attention to all surfaces and details. Our 40 years of tile installation and bathroom remodeling experience is applied to all of the projects that we contract with for a safe, secure and beautiful steam room & shower installation.
