How to make a shower in the bath do it yourself Baths, saunas and pools


Lovers shake in the bath know how important it is and is helpful to cool after the steam room. To do this, you can use the font, which is the mini-pool. For its arrangement, a conventional water barrel is used, installed when leaving the steam room. Or apply downes from bucket-waterfall, suspended outside the door - a person opens the door and falls under a refreshing stream of cold water. But today's ideas about the comfortable use of the bath suggest its shower.

Solve the problem of cold and hot water supply

The question of the arrangement of the shower in the bath will require solving some additional problems: water supply hot and cold, which would be supplied under the appropriate pressure. However, on this problems and will end - in the presence of water, it will remain only to bring the pipe and install the mixer.

Of course, ensuring cold water to organize much easier. Typically, a country house or cottage plot is connected to a centralized water supply system or equipped with their own well or well.

To get hot water for the soul, you will need to use water heaters. Usually, electrical devices are used for such purposes.

How to choose a water heater

Water heating electrical devices are divided into two types: accumulative and flowing. The latter have small sizes, the installation does not cause special difficulties, the cost is not high. A significant disadvantage of flow water heaters is the consumption of electricity, from 2 to 12 kW. The installation of them in the conditions of a country site is unlikely to be rational option: the presence of constant power in the power grid and increased pressure in the water supply system will be required.

If the pump can be installed to ensure the pressure of water, then there is no possibility to fight the voltage fluctuate on the network. You should stop the choice on the flow water heater in the event that the power supply on the site has stable parameters.

Considering the option of installing a cumulative water heater, we will immediately discuss its disadvantage - solid dimensions of the tank, in which the adjacent water accumulates. The problem can be solved by the removal of the tank in the pre-banner, the corridor or in the attic. Considering the shower in the bath in the photo, it is almost impossible to meet the option with the placement of the accumulative tank in the same room as the shower room or shower.

The accumulative type aggregate has a higher cost, but it provides hot water supply even in the absence of electricity at the time of use of the bath - the water temperature in the tank is maintained for a long time.

Installelectrical heater in a bath with a shower

Since the water heater will work from electricity, it will be necessary to bring it to the bath. If it is already listed, you should install onconducting A line machine that will lock from short circuit. It should be borne in mind that the water heater located in the bathroom and has constant contact with water, with all its tightness, it is still some danger in terms of a short circuit.

Water, which heats up the flow heater, is enough to supply only one water treatment point. Therefore, for its connection, the installation of one pipeline branch will be required. In order to prevent rust on pipes, a mechanical filter must be included in the system. To be able to enable and turn off the water, you will need to install the valve.

Installation of the plumbing system for the accumulative unit will be more complex: water in it is heated to +75 degrees, therefore the mixer will need in the system. At the same time, with the installation of a cumulative water heater, it is possible to supply hot water of several watershed points, which further complicates the pipeline scheme.

What pump to use

Solving the question, as in the bath to make souls, it is impossible to miss a very important point: for the normal operation of the water heater, water is required under the appropriate pressure. For this reason, the equipment of the bath shower suggests installing the pump. Depending on the source of water production, it can be used:

  • the deep pump, with which water is supplied from the well;
  • submersible pump designed to produce water from shallow wells or reservoirs;
  • surface, which serves to raise water from a depth not exceeding 7 m, such an unit can be used to increase pressure in pipes connected to centralized water supply.

How to choose pipes

In order for the water supply system in the process of operation, it is necessary to choose high-quality pipes for its installation. The rational option will be using metal plastic or plastic pipes, they differ:

  • long service life;
  • strength;
  • corrosion resistance;
  • simplicity of installation;
  • available cost.

Sound sources for shower

The easiest option is to use water from centralized water supply, well or well. If the system of providing the house with cold water is already functioning, the question will be imprisoned in the proportion of pipes to the bathhouse.

Pour pipes directly on the surface of the soil. The method of this is the cheapest allows you to use pipes of any quality, up to rubber. But it will be impossible to exploit such a water supply in winter.

If the use of the bath is assumed year-round, it will be necessary to put pipes in the trench, its depth should exceed the depth of the primer of the soil in this area. This will lead to a significant increase in expenses:

  • it will takes the purchase of high-quality pipes;
  • digging trench;
  • purchase of thermal insulation materials, possibly electrical heating cables that will exclude the possibility of freezing the pipeline at low temperatures.

If there is no cold water supply system on the site and its source, and I really want to have a bath with a shower, you will have to spend money on the arrangement of the well or well. This will lead to considerable expenditures on the arrangement of the water source, the acquisition of the pump, filters, carrying out measures for insulation.

Cleaning water for shower filters

It should be noted that the autonomous water supply system should be provided with sufficiently high-quality water filters. Water purification contributes to the extension of the service life of the pump and water heater.

The system is recommended to install two filters: from coarse and small impurities. The first mesh filter is installed, following it - a filter with holes from 5 to 10 microns, capable of removing particles that are suspended.

Other options for getting hot water for the shower

Depending on the location of the bath and the method of its heating, various options for ensuring the shower of hot water can be used. The simplest is the heating of water in the tank due to the fuel burned in the stove. In this case, the metal container is installed built-in or remote, on its surface, it is planned to have a separate connection of pipes going to the mixer of the shower. The water temperature is adjustable using a crane. Considering the baths with a shower in the photo, it can be noted that the principle of operation of such a hot water system is practically no different from the one that is equipped in a residential building.

Sometimes to obtain a hot carrier, the contour of the heating boiler is used, but this option is rationally apply in case the bath is located under one roof with a residential house.

If natural gas is supplied to the site, then the gas column can be used to heat water, but its installation must be made, naturally, it will lead to an increase in the cost of mounting the hot water system.

After selecting and connecting all the necessary elements into one system, it will be enough to connect it to the mixer and manual soul.

Drainage

Since water consumption in the bath increases, the organization of the system of its lead is required. Usually, if installing the shower cabin is not provided in the bath, the drainage is carried out through the hole in the floor.

Through the waste pipe, water falls into the pit with concreted walls. Next, wastewaters on the other, mounted in a pipe wall, go into a hole outside the bath.

The showering of the shower of the shower in the sewer system will speed up its fill and increase the costs of the services of the associates.
