Home Improvement | Taps and Tips For Bathroom Remodeling ...

Buying taps and bathroom or shower accessories when you are remodeling a bathroom for a disabled person can be something of a venture. Here are a few tips you may not have thought about.

Whether it is for an accommodation service, for the disabled or just to make the life easier for the elderly and children, it is a great idea to remodel a bathroom in a handicap friendly way. The latest bathroom fashions or technological innovations that are on the market will blow your mind. These products are focusing on being as green, as easy to use and as spectacular and as handicap friendly as can be. The latest bathroom and shower accessories are not only highly decorative and eye catching, but energy and water saving as well.

One of the preventative measures you can take to limit the risk of someone falling in the bathroom, is by installing a bathroom grab rail. This can help someone steady him or herself when getting out of a shower or aid the person in lifting him or herself out of a bath.

The suction grab bar is one of the fastest to install handicap grab bars. As a safety precaution the installation of a bathtub grab bar can prevent serious injuries when getting out of a bath or a shower. The bathroom grabrail is one of the most effect bathroom bathroom safety equipment around and an integral part of most handicap accessible showers.

The shower splash guard is easy to install and will not only make it easier to clean your bathroom, but it is a huge safety precaution you can take. Wet bathroom floors are extremely slippery and may be prevented by installing a shower splash guard.

Choosing a bathroom taps according to their design can make all the difference. The lever tap is mostly wall mounted for showers. A wall mounted lever tap may also make it easier to be within reach for someone who may find it difficult to lean forward to where the common installation place of bathroom taps are - at your feet. The lever tap also add a bit of modern look to any bathroom. It is very convenient for anyone to operate the lever tap in order to control the temperature and flow of the water. The wall mounted single lever thermostatic bath shower mixer is another type of lever tap where the temperature is controlled to help limit scaling and it also has a water saving feature.

Some faucets uses a delayed timer so that once pressed or otherwise activated, they will start to provide a flow of water that will keep flowing for a predetermined time. Taps using this delayed flow feature can save water as well.

Tap turners are made of plastic and fit onto most types of turning taps. They add a lever extension to the ordinary tap providing better leverage. Although tap turners are not as stylish as the exotic lever tap models, they provide a quick remodeling option for the home improvement contractor or the DIY enthusiast.

Light taps is one of the most fascinating handicap bathroom remodeling tools I think anyone can imagine. It works by shining a light into the water. The first inventions of this kind was an LED that projected a preset colour of light into the waterstream. Since light is so easily bend by water the stream of water carries the stream of coloured light. The light seams to be colouring the water. From the earlier production of tap lights now comes a light tap that also project a light but the colour changes as the temperature changes. This is something that can be useful for people that have a heat sensory disability. And it looks nice too. When you open the tap, the colour projection immediately indicate the temperature. The Light Delight is such a system where the cold stream of water shows in blue, over 19 degrees Celcius turns the water to violet and over 38 degrees the flow is the colour red. The most amazing feature to me is the fact that the light tap does not need any electricity to work.

Make sure to look at the different models of lever taps if you want a bathroom that is extremely accessible for most disabled persons.
