Shower bath suite buying guide If you’re considering purchasing a shower bath suite for your bathroom makeover, please read our expert buying guide below where we’ll help you make all the right decisions. What is a shower bath suite? A shower bath suite is merely a type of bathroom suite which usually contains a toilet, basin and shower bath. The type of toilet and basin may vary. For example, a vanity unit, washstand or countertop basin might replace a standard pedestal basin. In some cases, accessories such as taps, wastes and bath panels are also included with the suite. The shower bath itself may be a straight model or come with an enlarged end for showering, in which case, it is usually a P shaped or L shaped shower bath. All our shower baths come with a glass screen to protect from splashes, and are available in left and right handed designs. What type of bathroom is a shower bath suitable for? Shower bath suites are ideal for shared bathrooms or family bathrooms, where one person may want to take a bath and another may prefer a shower. The shower bath suite allows all household members to enjoy the best of both worlds. A shower bath suite can be added to any bathroom large enough to fit a standard-sized bath, a toilet and a basin comfortably. A downstairs cloakroom or small ensuite may not be large enough to house all of these items comfortably.

P shaped shower bath suite With this type of shower bath suite, the shower bath comes with an enlarged, curved end for showering. It is so-called, as it resembles a P shape.

L shaped shower bath suite As you may have guessed, an L shaped shower bath resembles an L shape, with an enlarged, square end, giving you more room to move about when showering.
