You have a variety of choices when it comes to accessible shower systems.Walk-In Showers – These are shower systems that have little to zero barriers when it comes to accessing the shower. In certain systems you can even roll a shower chair in and out with ease. These come in multiple sizes and dimensions and in most cases all you have to do is replace your existing bath tub.
What are Walk-In Tubs?
You see these all over TV ads. The are probably the most talked about items when it comes to handicap shower systems. You walk into this shower and take a seat, turn on the water and then shower. After you have showered you just need to pull the plug and let the water out.
Barrier Free or Zero Barrier
This benefit is for the walk in shower systems. You can use a rolling shower chair and easily roll someone into the shower with little to no effort. In some cases you will use a water damn to keep the water from coming out. This can easily be rolled over.
