About Walk-in or roll-in showers
When remodeling your bathroom to improve accessibility, it is important to be aware of all your options. You can quickly and easily replace your old bathtub with an accessible walk-in shower. Barrier free showers have low-threshold showers available with a rubber T-Water Stopper to keep water in the pan as it drains. These flexible thresholds allow for shower seats to roll right into the shower, which eliminates your risk of falling when you enter the stall.
Also, having a shower eliminates the uncomfortable waiting time of filling and draining the bathtub. With a hand held shower hose, you can set the water to a comfortable temperature while sitting in the shower. You can also wait outside the shower until it reaches the optimal temperature before heading in.
There are also definite cost benefits to opting for an accessible shower. In addition to the money saved on utility bills, the product costs less than a bathtub with lower installation costs too. A roll-in shower with a plywood backing also lets you adapt to your changing mobility since you can add additional grab bars and seats.
Make an informed decision when it comes to creating a barrier free bathroom. Take into account the safety, comfort and cost of your options to make the right choice for you.
