Why an Outdoor Shower Makes Sense

Even though New England is known for having painfully cold winters, our summers can get pretty hot too. Part of living here means that you must adapt to the rapid change in weather at a moment's notice. When temperatures reach 90 degrees or more, learning how to stay cool in the scorching heat is necessary. If you don’t have a pool, what better way to cool offer than taking a nice, cold shower? Outdoor showers are a fabulous option for those humid summer days. I understand that you may be thinking “Why have an outdoor shower when it’s just going to freeze in the winter?”, and trust me, there are ways to insulate and protect the shower from being damaged by the harsh winter months.

Easy Access for Pets and Kids

If you have pets and kids, you know they can get dirty. Tracking mud and grime onto your freshly cleaned floors doesn’t have to be a worry when you have an outdoor shower installed. Since the shower is outside and easily accessible, it makes cleaning a breeze. Kids and adults can clean off from working in the garden or playing in the dirt. Even if no one in your house gets dirty outside, having an outdoor shower is a great solution if your home only has one shower inside.

Resort Feel at Home

What’s a better way to relax at home without breaking the bank of a beach getaway? Installing a beautiful outdoor shower can make you feel like you’re in another place. Learn to relax on a nice summer day by showering outside and sitting by the pool. You can even shower outside to start your day with some vitamin D from the sun.

Change of Scenery

Now and then, everyone needs a fresh change of scenery. Are you tired of seeing your old tiled shower and bathroom vanity? Instead of renovating your bathroom, having an outdoor shower built is a great option to restore your senses. Outdoor showers can expose you to the wonderful sounds of birds and wildlife in your area. Plus, who wouldn’t want to end their day looking at a golden cotton candy-colored sunset? You could also start the day by looking at fluffy clouds, creating a soothing sensation before tackling a busy day.

Increases Home Value

Of course, making any renovation to your home is known to increase the property value of it. The increase and ROI (Return On Investment) can vary depending on what renovations you have done. The most common renovations that increase home value are kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, and having an addition built. Now, this doesn’t mean that other renovations aren’t worth the money. Any updates to your home are well spent and rest assured, do help when it’s time to sell. If increasing your home value isn’t a concern, adding a personalized touch to your home is something everyone yearns to do.

Easy Way to Cool Down

Out of all the reasons to own an outdoor shower, the simplest is the need to cool off. Sometimes, on a hot day with the sun beating down on you, it feels euphoric and calming to take a nice cold shower outside. Feeling your day melt away and go down the drain. Soak up the sun and cool down after a hard day of working. Maybe your home doesn’t have air conditioning, in that case, a cold shower and ceiling fan are your best friend.
