They're terrible. Everything you said is true, but I'll add that unless you crank up the heat in the room, they're miserable on cold days. The enclosed showers trap the steam and warmth from the how water in with you, but with no door it's just cold.
Thought that heat lamps might get rid of the chill factor?
I have 3+ meter ceilings in all rooms including the bathroom, and the heat lamps are a godsend in winter.
I'm looking to renovate the bathroom over the coming years and thought that an open space shower might be a great addition but maybe we will reconsider.
I do like the Japanese prefab wet bathroom units, but not sure if they are available here, nor if the other half would approve.
Well, they do, but they're giant energy hogs. Just have a door on the shower and that stuff isn't needed.
What you saved on not installing a door you just blew threw by using a heat lamp
Hm. My bathroom is always 23°C or warmer, no matter the weather. When is colder outside, my heat pump delivers more warm water to the heating circuits. Does heating in the US work differently?
Look at this high and mighty European with a heat pump and everything... /s
Most of the heat in the US is electric or gas. In areas where the temps get freezing and below outside, people don't tend to run it to get the temps into the mid 20s like that.
Does that really make a difference on the bill, are the houses so badly insulated? I always thought that style of building with wooden walls and insulation foam should make heating extremely cheap.
Insulation varies, but even a well insulated house is going to get cold if it's freezing outside, and it takes energy to get them up to a toasty temp.
