Best Shower to Steam Shower Installation

 

Convert your shower to a steam shower!

Custom Tile Steam Shower Conversion

 

We remodel a shower in this Denver master bathroom by taking space from the adjoining bedroom closet enlarging the shower, cutting down the wall, and making a half wall behind the toilet. The porcelain tile in this bathroom is 12x30 inches and available at Floor & Decor Aurora, CO store

The accent tile is a porcelain penny sheet tile which is also purchased at Floor and Decor.

The homeowner designed the vertical placements on the back wall and shower valve wall for the recessed shampoo shelves.

The metal edge is by Schluter in a brush nickel finish that matches the plumbing trim and shower drain grate which is also by Schluter.

The steam generator selected for the project is by SteamMist and will generate abundant heat for this residential steam shower conversion.

As you will see in the gallery below a shower to steam shower conversion involves a lot of work, basically starting from scratch. Because there is a difference between waterproof and vapor proof.

Most showers installed may be waterproofed especially for the shower pans but are not vapor proofed efficiently for a steam shower.

It's not a matter of drilling a hole in the tile and connecting a steam generator. The entire structure needs to be not only waterproofed but also vapor proofed to prevent structural damage.

Denver Steam Shower Installation

CONVERT SHOWER TO STEAM SHOWER Denver, Co

If you have ever lived in an older home you know that bathrooms were designed small, very small.

To update and add value and also practical design to their master bathroom this young couple decided to get rid of one of their two-bedroom closets to be able to expand their shower.

They not only wanted more room but they also wanted to incorporate the healthful benefits of a steam shower into their remodel project.

At the same time, they wanted to keep the existing tile flooring and shiplap that was already installed.

We enlarged their shower installation adding another 2 ft to the shower space and also cut the entrance wall in half. This adds to the feeling of space by opening up to the natural light feeling less confined.

If you're thinking about a steam shower installation project for your home, here are a few things you may want to consider:

Some reasons why a home steam shower will benefit you;

  • People are busy these days; finding time to take care of themselves and make healthy lifestyle choices can be difficult. We each have a different routine that we follow day by day involving family, work, business, and association. What time is left is precious.

  • Imagine you could recharge and rejuvenate in your own home's steam shower or steam room. It would be as convenient and easy as pressing a button. No driving, no hassles, no waiting or reserving steam sessions. Your well-being and happiness will be improved to move on to the next matter that will come up.

  • Other healthful therapies can also be integrated into modern steam shower sessions and be even more effective. Therapies such as aromatherapy, chromotherapy even music as therapy can be combined with your steam shower for the ultimate in stress relief. Relax and unwind after a hectic day of activities. Consistent home steam sessions will elevate, your energy levels, and your relaxed mood will return, just by using your home steam shower regularly.

  • Just imagine how much time we spend in the bathroom. For most of us, it's the first place we go to when we wake up and the last place we visit before we hit the sack. Not to mention the in-between time. Because of the changing lifestyles of the modern family, the bathroom has become the place where we can devout a little me-time into the equation. Adding a steam shower into today's bathroom remodeling project is not only healthy but adds substantially to the value of your home.

  • If you have ever felt the need for a time out from the overwhelmingly mundane task at hand, or stuck in a never-ending never-backdown mode that seems to be all around us? Regular steam sessions enhance other stress-relieving strategies, such as exercise, sleep, eating health-wise, and other habits that positively affect our important health issues. However, steam therapy is not only for you personally, but it also benefits other people in a meaningful way. How so? Who wants to be around a grouch? It's always nice to be around a person who deals with and treats others in a mild and patient manner. When we feel good physically our mental disposition will also benefit in a positive way.

CUSTOM STEAM SHOWER-TILE INSTALLATION

 

All of the setting materials for this steam shower tile installation project are the highest in quality. Mapei Ultralite Mortar Pro thin-set is very strong lightweight and easy to spread. It's very sticky and adheres to the walls and ceiling almost instantly when mixed according to the manufacturer's directions.

We also selected the Mapei Ultracolor Plus FA grout which is probably the best grout on the market today and an excellent grout for steam shower projects.

We apply the thin-set mortar with a 1/2"x1/2" notch trowel and make sure to spread a layer of thin-set to the surface being installed and we butter and or notch the back of the tile as we are tiling the shower.

All shower tile installation projects are waterproof so that there will be no water leaks or surprises down the road. With steam shower installation projects we go another step further in making sure that the shower is also vapor proofed. This step is not included with most shower replacement tile installations which is why you cant simply drill a hole in the wall and hook up a steam generator.
