Rain Shower Trends 2023
Some of the latest tech developments in rain showers today include designs that increase convenience, water conservation, and provide a customisable shower experience. In recent years, rain shower heads have been equipped with smart technology, allowing users to control the water temperature, flow rate, and even turn the shower on or off from their smartphone.
Rain showers provide an immersive experience
Jerome Toh, Area Manager for Duravit, Singapore says, “A rain shower needs to provide the user an immersive experience with a reduced amount of water without compromising on the comfort level. Therefore, many new rain shower heads are designed to incorporate air with water to compensate with the lower water flow rate allowed.”
Rain shower with LED lights, Hi-Fi sound
Some rain shower heads come with built-in LED lights, which can change colour based on the water temperature or provide a calming ambient lighting. Many of the latest rain shower heads are designed using low-flow technology to reduce water usage without sacrificing performance, and with adjustable flow rates that allow you to switch between a gentle rain-like flow and a more powerful drenching spray. Other key innovations include rain shower systems combined with hi-fidelity sound that let you play your favourite tunes while you shower, and multiple spray modes such those that simulate the effect of mists and waterfalls.
How to choose a rain shower?
When choosing a rain shower for your bathroom, consider the size of your shower area, water pressure, materials, finishings, adjustability, and the installation process.
Smaller bathroom, smaller rain shower
If you have a small shower area, you might want to consider a smaller rain shower head, while a larger shower area can accommodate a larger shower head. If your plumbing system has low water pressure, look for a rain shower head with a flow restrictor that can be removed for increased water flow.
Stainless steel vs Brass rain shower
Choose a material that matches the style and durability you’re looking for. Stainless steel is durable, while brass is more expensive and heavier. Plastic is lightweight and inexpensive, but less durable. If you need to change the angle and direction of the water flow, you should choose adjustable shower heads.
Rain shower set installation
It is also important to consider whether you can install the rain showerhead on your own, or if you’ll need to hire a professional to help with its installation.
Exposed or concealed rain shower set?
“There are two types of rain shower installation – concealed or exposed. Exposed rain shower systems are suitable for almost all homes and is a great choice for users to change to a rain shower system without major consideration on the technical aspects.
Concealed installation is great for users who are doing a rebuild of their bathrooms. Concealed installation requires forward planning as the components and pipes are hidden in the wall to give an elegant and clean look to the bathroom,” says Jerome.
