Pleasantly Practical

While hygiene is important for everybody, not everyone has the luxury of bathing while standing in a shower room at home. This is particularly true for the sick and the elderly who may have lost their strength and stamina to do so. As such, they need a bathroom solution with a purpose-driven design. Representing a new phase in innovative bathroom solutions, the Akron sitting shower is a practical, hygienic and stylish take on how to address this growing need.Unlike ordinary shower seats, this ergonomic sitting shower makes it possible for a person to enjoy the pleasure of complete showering without standing up. To accommodate the potentially limited amount of shower space in modern home bathrooms, this unit has been designed with a minimal projection of 10”. This is achievable thanks to the design of its well-thought-out seat that can be folded when not in use. When properly installed, the unit can withstand a body load of up to 110kg. It comes with a pair of armrests that provide an extra level of safety and comfort. For added safety, it is equipped with an anti-scald thermostatic temperature control valve.Instead of having a fixed overhead shower, the Akron sitting shower is equipped with 10 rotatable body jets located ergonomically on its two swivel arms. These arms can be swung up and down a full 180 degrees, making full-body showering just that much easier. Aside from providing users flexibility in terms of the option to take a shower the conventional way, the handheld shower positioned at its side which has a 1.5m-long hose also serves as a convenient tool for when someone needs assistance showering.
