Decorators everywhere are falling in love with these long-lasting and sophisticated walls! There is a perfect style for everyone! Getting a new Jetcoat shower is incredibly quick and easy with the Jetcoat grout-free installation system. Although it looks like these are individual tiles, they are actually large panels that simply click into place with their tongue and groove edges. They fit so snugly that you will have a hard time finding the seams once the panels are in place. The SPC Rigid Core panels are incredibly durable since they are made into a composite from natural marble powder and PVC powder. With 10 layers of strengthening and UV protectant mediums, these heavy-duty walls will stand up for years without the worry of chipping, staining, or fading.

Jetcoat is a stunningly affordable option for anyone looking to install a shower. With multiple base sizes available and a 10-year warranty, replacing your old bathtub, standard shower, or corner shower is a breeze! You can also order a custom base from Handy Man and order Jetcoat walls to fit if you have a unique-sized space. Come and see it on display at our showroom – you will love it! See the installation video here! 

Jetcoat was created by Craft+Main (previously called Foremost), one of our trusted vendors for many bathroom products, including their bathroom vanity cabinets and shower doors.

Emerge Shower Column
The possibilities are endless when you install a shower column! Install your favorite rain-type shower head and pair it with a coordinating hand shower. One major perk to this is that you do not need to alter your plumbing to enjoy an overhead rain shower!

Peerless Ezra Shower Bar

This 6-function hand shower has a “pause” function that reduces water to a trickle, which allows you space for shaving and lathering while keeping the water temperature warm for when you need it next. The sliding bar allows you to adjust the water spray to the ideal height to suit you.

The post 6 Shower Heads For A More Relaxing Experience appeared first on Handy Man Home Remodeling Center.

After a long workout, the best thing you can do for yourself is to wash it off in a relaxing shower. Some modifications to your existing shower can make a world of difference.

1.      The easiest improvement is to install a 2-in-1 hand shower. These hand showers function as both showerheads and hand-held shower wands. Best of all, these affordable add-ons can be installed in just a few minutes and can be used to massage sore muscles, as well as rinse children and wash pets.

2.      If you are looking for a more permanent muscle-massaging solution, installing body-jets is a life-changer. You will need a multi-function shower to achieve this, but you can also add a rain head, standard showerhead, and body-jets for a complete shower experience.

3.      Another great addition to a multi-function shower is the U by Moen smart shower. You are able to set different temperatures and functions for multiple users or times of day. For example, you can set your morning shower to be 104• with the standard showerhead and set your post-workout shower to be 98• with body jets. This way, you get a perfect shower every time.

4.      For the ultimate upgrade, consider creating a luxurious steam shower in your home. Many studies have been done to prove the benefits of steam showers after workouts. Steam showers are great for circulation, stress, skin care, and overall exercise recovery. The steam opens pores and improves circulation by widening your blood vessels, making it the ultimate recovery tool.

In a world of smart homes and smart cars, it’s time to introduce the smart shower! The U by Moen fully integrates the power of technology with the experience of a rejuvenating shower.

What is it? 

The U by Moen shower is a digitally controlled shower experience. Instead of manual controls for temperature and water pressure, there is an LCD screen that controls all shower functions – temperature, which shower head is active, and can set time limits and water-saving features. We’re a huge fan of the U by Moen shower and agree with Wise Pick that it’s the “Best All-Around Smart Shower Controller”. Not only do you get a great shower every time, but you also get the support of Moen’s customer service and experience.

Customization

Instead of controlling your shower temperature and spray pattern with handles or knobs, a small digital control panel is placed in your shower that can be set to a specific temperature, time limit, and pre-set. For example, if you prefer a hot shower in the morning and a cooler one after a workout, you can set it so. The U by Moen shower has the ability to have FOUR outlet valves for multiple showerheads. Simply choose which ones you want running with the touch of a button.

Cleaning

The absence of levers and knobs makes shower cleaning a breeze and leaves your shower looking less cluttered. It is also easy to install in your home because extra holes for valves do not need to be drilled.

Cost-Efficient

In total, the cost of installing the U by Moen Smart Shower is comparable to that of a standard shower. Although the solenoid for the smart shower comes at a price, you do not need to purchase separate valves and have them installed. Plus, once you are using it, the water-saving ability is abundant.

It is not unusual for users to turn on their shower, get distracted, and forget the shower is running while gallons of clean fresh water pour down the drain.  When you turn on the U shower and it reaches the desired temperature for your shower, the water stops until you’re ready to use it. The pause function not only saves water for the environment but also saves you money on your water bill. You may also save water by programming the timer function. Reduce your water usage by setting a shower time limit. For each 5-minutes the shower is running, approximately 12 gallons of water go down the drain.  By limiting, or simply being conscious of your time spent in the shower, you can drastically reduce your water bill.

Connectivity

By connecting your smartphone to the U by Moen, you can start the shower from anywhere in your home. When the water temperature meets the programmed setting, it will pause the water and let you know that your shower is ready to go!

With all of the technological advances in kitchens and bathrooms, the U by Moen will be welcomed along with touch and motion faucets, electric mirrors, washlet toilet seats, and more! Find and experience all of these items in Handy Man’s showroom!
