The experience
The Showerdome’s design means water condenses on the edge of the dome rather than the apex, so water doesn’t drip on your head. Also, you may find you can set the water temperature lower as less heat goes up in steam.
In addition, installing a Showerdome may mean you no longer need to run your extractor fan or mirror demister, and you might not need to run your electric towel rail for as long. However, these types of appliances consume small amounts of energy so you’d be unlikely to notice huge savings. The manufacturer claims you can save water by turning off the shower while you soap up, wash and shampoo, because the cubicle stays warm. While we didn’t test this, we think it is optimistic.
Other options
Showerdomes aren’t the only way to put a lid on steam. A similar product called Steam Stopper, with a frosted roof resembling a geodesic dome, retails for $239. Bunnings sells a “Shower Crown” designed for Stein showers for $249. As these products use the same principle to contain steam, as long as they’re installed properly, they should be effective. 作者: AMY_JIN 时间: 2017-8-25 16:56:12
