Partial Glass Wall

What can you expect in terms of features and design when you choose a partial glass side wall shower base?  For starters, you’ll get a one-piece shower base in 100% solid surface material.  The DuPont Corian surface is non-porous, which makes it resistant to microbes, not to mention easy to clean and maintain.  It’s also a slip-tested material that has no curb to step over, so it helps to prevent slips, trips, and falls.

You can choose from dozens of colors to ensure that your shower base perfectly complements any existing wall finish material, as well as your personal style aesthetic.  The 2% single slope design is ADA compatible, offering better stability than a multi-slope shower, and it feeds to a linear drain, across the entire width of the base, ensuring an efficient evacuation of water.

As for sizing, you can choose from custom dimensions up to 90 x 42 (WD), and for the partial glass side wall shower in particular, you can choose whether you want the short partial ledge on either the right or the left, depending on your layout or preference.  This configuration works in a variety of bathroom settings and it can make your shower the showpiece of your bathroom remodel.

Benefits of Installing a Partial Glass Side Wall Shower Base

You might be surprised by the absolute wealth of benefits you’ll gain when you install a partial glass side wall curbless shower from Encompass Shower Bases.  Let’s start with the fact that DuPont Corian delivers a single, solid, non-porous surface that’s easy to clean and maintain.  Your days of scrubbing grimy grout are over when you choose a Corian surface.

This curbless, slip-tested surface is also ADA compatible.  The zero-entry base offers a seamless transition from the bathroom floor to the shower stall, eliminating tripping hazards for children, pets, and the elderly.  It also provides handicapped accessibility, depending on dimensions, and is a perfect addition to any home where owners are planning on aging in place.  The 2% single-slope design provides greater stability and efficiently funnels water to the front linear drain.  In addition the linear drain itself has a 2% slope within the drain so that there is no standing water within the drain channel after your shower.

From a functional standpoint, Encompass Shower bases can replace existing shower stalls and tubs during remodeling, and even be manufactured in custom sizes to perfectly fit your space.  With a curbless entry, you’ll not only maximize space, but create a clean, open design aesthetic that gives your bathroom high-end, luxury appeal and creates an inviting, spa-like atmosphere.

You probably already know that bathroom remodels offer stellar return on investment, and adding a modern and attractive curbless shower will help to boost your property value.  Don’t forget, we also offer a 3-year residential or 1-year commercial warranty on all glass wall shower bases, for your protection and peace of mind.

With options for custom shower bases of up to 90×42 (WD), you can find the perfect options to make a cramped bathroom feel more spacious with a glass sidewall or fill a large master with the spa-like shower you’ve been dreaming of.  Handicapped accessibility is also an option with curbless shower bases.

The partial glass side wall shower bases feature two glass walls, one at the front of the base, and a second one on the left or right side sized to suit your new design. In addition, the front linear drain output can be moved left or right (at time of order) in the event that the new base drain location output would interfere with and under floor obstruction such as a floor joist. Almost all other curbless bases don’t offer this option.

That’s not all, though.  You’ll also enjoy the opportunity to select from a wide range of color choices to complement existing interior design features or suit your style sensibilities.  You can choose DuPont Corian surface material in standard neutrals like bright Glacier and pale Bisque, or alternately, mid-tone Ash or darker Carbon (both gray), just for example.  Or you can opt for warm beiges or browns, as well as blacks, blues, greens, yellows, or reds that speak to your personal preference.
