Rain shower faucet for a relaxing system

Recently, special attention has been paid to hydro-massage devices, as they help to get a charge of positive emotions. Highly popular shower set with a rain shower and faucet, which takes not very much space in the room.

Such a system operates according to certain rules, having a positive impact.

Main pros and cons

For the first time, shower systems with rain showers and mixers appeared in the UK. Water supply in this case is carried out through wide panels, watering cans and other devices.

Most often, such designs are equipped with LED lighting. Below are considered the positive and negative sides of these devices.

List of important benefits

• When taking water procedures through such a soul, a maximum relaxing effect is achieved.
• Modern models have a stylish design, so they look impressive in almost any room.
• The system is absolutely safe, despite the presence of a special backlight.
• If necessary, the installation of elements can be made directly with your own hands.

Consideration of some of the shortcomings

• The rather high price makes many consumers reject this option.
• When using shower mixers with a rain shower, water consumption increases significantly when taking water treatments.
• To install a complete system, you will have to allocate more space, which is very problematic to do with a small area of ​​the room.

Note! If the bathroom has a relatively small size, then it is quite possible to combine this kind of shower with a bath. However, this will require additional insulation such as plastic curtains.

Basic installation options

Such devices can be classified according to various criteria, but the installation can be carried out in one of two ways. In the first case, the elements of the system are located outside, and in the second - they are embedded in the side surfaces and the ceiling. The latter option is considered the most spectacular in terms of aesthetic characteristics.

Pipeline installation

With this option, a mixer for a tropical shower is built into the wall, and the piping system is hidden behind the finishing coating. As a lining can be used any moisture-resistant material. However, in most cases it is purchased ceramic tiles.

When choosing this method of installation of the system, the laboriousness of the work is quite large, since you have to hide the pipes in the side surfaces and the ceiling.

Detailed installation instructions are listed below.

1. At the initial stage, with the help of a perforator in the wall and ceiling, special channels are made into which the elements that carry out the delivery of the working environment will be laid.
2. Next, the mixer itself is connected to the hot and cold water pipelines. After connecting to the source, the fixture is attached to the side plane.
3. A square or round watering can is fixed to the ceiling. It is supplied with a pipe that will deliver water of the desired temperature from the installed mixer.
4. At the last stage, when the installation of the conductive elements is completed, they are sealed with cement mortar. Ceramic tile or any other covering is laid on top.

Attention! In the implementation of the hidden installation is recommended to use polypropylene pipes. They are not subject to corrosion, so they can serve for a long time.

Installation in an open way

In this situation, the shower rack is installed with a rain shower and a mixer or a separate panel, the cost of which is actually not very high. Such designs can be installed both above the bath and in a special box.

The main work is usually performed in the following order.

1. The initial stage involves preparing the site for the installation process.. That is, at this stage, surface finishing and the necessary communication systems are carried out.
2. The assembly is being assembled directly according to the manual, which was attached by the manufacturer.. All the necessary parts included in the purchased kit are fixed.
3. Connected to communication networks. The mixer is connected to the plumbing system. It is best to use flexible hoses for these purposes.
4. Lastly, the installed system is tested.. There should be no leakage when water is supplied at the joints. If all is well, then you can start operation.

Note! Bathroom faucets with rain shower are mounted in the same way. In this case, water enters the watering can through a flexible hose that goes directly from the device.

Useful installation guidelines

Before work, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with a list of basic recommendations that will simplify the installation process. They will allow you to avoid all sorts of troubles associated with leaks.

With a high-quality installation, the system will function properly for many years.

• When shower racks with a rain shower with a mixer or similar devices are installed, it is necessary to choose a place taking into account the location of communication elements.
• If the installation of the faucet above the bath is planned, then the distance from the lower plane to the edge of the sanitary fixture should be measured. About 10–20 cm are added to this value.
• The main conclusions are set strictly perpendicular to the side surface. Even the slightest inaccuracies can lead to a skew of the main device and subsequent damage to the crimping gaskets.
• When a shower stall with a rain shower without a mixer is installed, the connection can be made with a flexible hose to an external fixture.
• When applying markings for structures with a rod, first a vertical line bounces off, which coincides with the location of the pipe to which the rack is attached.
• Thin plates or tubes should be used as anchors for a vertical rod. The main product after the installation process is simply put on them.

Reference! Before the shower panel with a rain shower and faucet is connected, you should check the initial pressure in the water supply system. It should not be below two atmospheres.

More about backlight

During the operation of the shower, imitating tropical rain, as a rule, lights are used, the colors of which can be changed depending on the mood. Some scientists believe that using the components of the palette is quite possible to get a healing effect.

Yellow shades are immediately associated with the sun, so they allow for the prevention of depression. In color therapy, these tones provide an opportunity to arouse thirst for knowledge. With regular exposure, there is a desire to explore the world.

Green is one of the softest components of a cold range. It has a calming effect on the body. The disadvantage is the awakening of appetite, which is associated with the impact on a certain area of ​​the brain.

Blue tones practically inhibit activity, lowering to some extent the pressure and body temperature. Being under the influence of these shades is recommended immediately before bedtime, as there is a clear soporific effect.

Red color allows you to adjust the brain to work, so it is desirable to use it in the morning. Prolonged exposure may cause various disorders.

Orange shades have a similar effect on the human body, when compared with the tones of the previous component of the palette. However, the impact is not as strong.

As for the purple color, it is able to slow down the vital processes as much as possible. With prolonged exposure, there is a constant feeling of fatigue.

As a conclusion

Before installing a faucet with a shower that simulates a tropical rain, the pipeline layout must be chosen, since aesthetic perception will depend on it. To get a more complete picture of the products of this type, it is recommended to read the special video in this article.
