Now more than ever, the bathroom is more than just a practical space; it has evolved into a haven of technology, comfort, style, and eco-friendly design. Today’s homeowners are seeking design ideas and trends that make them feel pampered and reflect their sense of style. And industry pros are responding with products and features that exude comfort, luxury, and the latest tech.
If a bathroom remodel is in your future, here are some of the most popular bathroom plumbing trends to consider.
Smart Shower Controls
A smart shower offers advanced features like personalized presets and voice-activated commands. Imagine setting just the right water temperature, pressure, lighting and even music with the touch of a button or sound of your voice. You’ll not only enjoy a personalized shower experience, but conserve water and save on utility bills with presets like shower duration and temperature controls.
Spa-Like Showers
Enjoy a luxury spa experience right in your own home. Features like built-in seating, rain showers, steam showers, and body sprays help transform your shower into a soothing oasis. If space permits, consider placing a freestanding bathtub within the enclosure of a walk-in shower. This combination allows users to enjoy the comfort and relaxation of a tub with the convenience of a walk-in shower.
Smart Toilets
The latest toilet trends include feature like automatic lids, warming seats, and self-cleaning functions. Couple that with the latest in water-conservation technology and you’ve got a seat fit for royalty.
Bidets
Bidets have long been popular in Europe and Asia, and now more Americans are singing the bidet’s praises as well. Available as stand-alone fixtures or attachments, bidets offer a comfortable, soothing, and eco-friendly way to get clean.
Towel Warmers
Enjoy a warm, dry towel after every shower or bath with a towel warmer. But the benefits don’t stop there. A towel warmer helps reduce the risk of mold and mildew growth by shortening the time it takes towels to dry between uses. Plus, it’s heat output can even add supplemental warmth to your bathroom.
Touchless Faucets
Thanks to a built-in sensor, water begins to flow when you place your hand under the spout and stops when you remove it. This technology helps keep germs at bay, reduces water waste, and makes cleaning a breeze.
Water Closets
A water closet is a small room with a commode inside. While it is generally seen in ensuite baths, you can find a water closet in any bathroom that boasts enough space. It allows more than one person to use the bathroom without sacrificing privacy, improves cleanliness by not flushing near towels, soap, toothbrushes, and so on, and makes the bathroom more aesthetically pleasing.
