Roll In Showers - Key Points
- Roll in Showers are designed to be accessible in a wheelchair. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines specify a minimum inside shower dimension of 60" x 30".
- ADA wheelchair showers come in a variety of sizes and styles. One-piece showers for new construction and multi-piece wheelchair accessible showers for remodelling are available.
- To comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), installation of a folding shower seat, inside corner grab bar, handheld showerhead and pressure mixing valve is required.
- ADA Shower Stalls are available in both gelcoat fiberglass and acrylic construction.
- Roll-in showers have a reputation of being difficult to install. The primary obstacle is to maintain a smooth transition from the floor to the stall by ensuring a flush transition. Often, custom-made stalls are designed to be slightly sunken into the floor framing. The shower floor should be designed to slope slightly toward the drain.
- A popular material to use for the floor is prefabricated fibreglass and acrylic.
- This not only eliminates having to jackhammer to build the drain, but these panels are also available in a variety of sizes and work nicely if you are converting a tub into a shower.
- Install shelves that are reachable for someone who will be seated and operating controls should be mounted where they can be reached from outside the stall.
- With a roll-in stall, opt for a shower curtain or accordion-style door, as you will find most large doors will be very impractical.
- The floor of the roll in shower should have a no-skid finish and a waterproofing treatment should be done on the entire bathroom floor.
