Walk-In Shower: Good idea?

button
16 years ago

Howdy folks. In my shower project I am thinking of doing a walk in shower that does not have a door and I am wondering has anybody done this and if this a good idea or not?

The shower is the size of a standard tub and I moved the drain to the middle. I am thinking of keeping the shower controls on the left hand side and moving the shower head to the right hand side. There would be about a 6" curb where you walk in then about a 3 foot wall with a piece of glass on top the stops about a foot from the ceiling. (See pics below) My only concern is that with out a shower door/curtain that water will splash out into the restroom.

I could move the showerhead so it comes out of the ceiling and rains straight down which should solve the water splash problem but I'm not sure if it is nice or annoying to shower with the water coming straight down.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Hopefully I am making sense. Thanks, Chris

Here are some mock up pics of what I am thinking. One is looking from the right side and the other is looking from the left side.
