Shower Tile All The Way To Ceiling Frosted Glass Door

Redoing all of the tile white subway traditional old look.

Shower tile all the way to ceiling frosted glass door.

Instead of bringing the door all the way to the ceiling most steam showers are designed with movable transoms above the door. You barely notice the top of the glass and it lets it vent out well but still holds a good bit of heat in. Bathroom is relatively small so am removing the door that separates the toilet shower from the vanity. Stabilizing tall floor to ceiling showers.

The glass transom then acts like a vent and can be tilted open to release hot steam or kept close to keep the steam in. Aesthetically for most tile shower walls end with the last complete row of tile at around 6 feet 2 inches or so or to the top or just above the glass enclosure depending on how the math works out. Homeowners who want a floor to ceiling frameless shower may need a glass transom in their design. I think it looks better to not take it all the way to the ceiling personally.

It is necessary to tile the ceiling and you should be prepared to let the fan remove humidity that is leave the shower door open until dry. I have not had a problem. The pieces are made from 3 8 ansi z97 1 and 16 cfr 1201 certified clear tempered glass resisting dangerous breakage shards and streaks. In my case i just leave the door open after i shower to evacuate the moisture.

My own steam shower is tiled on all sides and the floor to ceiling glass enclosure means a wonderful warmth even when the steam is not activated. But you will need to do something to evacuate the moisture. I m doing my master bath with frameless panels that go up to about regular door height. I do not have a fan and took the door all the way to 1 2 from the ceiling.

You ll want to make sure you have a tile ceiling rather than drywall for this application. Was thinking i would run the glass 1 fixed piece 1 door all the way to the ceiling in all of the pictures i am seeing it is stopping at least a foot below the ceiling. Step into something different with the vigo winslow frameless sliding glass shower door enclosure. Notice the glass is blue probably bluer in the image than in real life but you get the idea.
