What is a rainfall shower?
Quite simply, a rainfall shower or rain shower is a shower that spreads the distribution of water across a wide surface, creating a rain like effect as if you were standing outside during the British summertime. Rainfall showers and shower heads have been growing in popularity for a number of years, but now that they're more affordable than ever we've tipped 2022 to be the year that they truly take over.
Trends come and go but we're pretty certain this one is going to be around for quite a while. We're here to give you a complete guide to rainfall showers and rainfall shower heads. Whether you're looking to revamp your bathroom for 2020 or just generally looking to add some hotel-style glamour, a rainfall shower is a perfect option.
Why Choose a Rainfall Shower?
Considering a new shower? To make your decision easier, we're here to give you the lowdown on all of the benefits of choosing an exciting new rainfall shower.
Innovative rainfall showers typically have larger shower heads when compared with your average shower. Their aim is to simulate a steady rainfall in the comfort of your own shower. Although gravity does most of the work some manufacturers also choose to add an air injection to enhance flow and stop the chance of drizzle.
Tipped to be the 'in' thing in 2021, the biggest benefit of installing a rainfall shower is their ability to make every shower feel like a luxurious spa visit.

Rainfall Shower Heads
When it comes to choosing the perfect rainfall shower head we understand it can be overwhelming. Square or circular? Flat fixed or wall-mounted? Dual waterfall or rainfall? The level of choice is phenomenal. So here's what you need to know about these clever devices that let you sing in the rain while indoors! Unlike a regular shower head, a rainfall shower head has a much larger surface area, as such water spread is much wider, softer and reminiscent of a refreshing summer rain.
Ideal for those looking to save water, on average only around 11 litres per minute (lpm) of water are released from the highly efficient shower heads, a stark decrease compared to pre-1992 shower heads which would emit around 25lpm of water. Putting water-saving and an immersive shower experience aside, one of the main reasons rainfall shower heads are going to boom in 2020 is due to their ultra-modern and minimalist design.

Alternatives to Rainfall Showers?
We fully understand that rainfall showers are not to everyone's taste. With this in mind we've decided to give you a quick rundown of our favourite alternative types of shower:
Shower Towers
Much like I did, you're probably asking yourself what is a shower tower? A shower tower is a tall panel in which a shower head, hand shower, body jets (ooh fancy) and controls are installed. These showers are great for those who are looking to add a real modern designer feel to their bathroom. Although quite large in size, shower towers are great for adding a minimalist look to your bathroom as all fixtures and pipes are neatly hidden away.
The black slimline shower is tipped to be on-trend throughout 2020 so why not get the jump on your friends and upgrade your bathroom now.
Digital Showers
Are you fed up of your water going cold when someone turns on a tap? Then a digital shower is for you. Unlike traditional showers, the digital thermostat is built into the shower unit, meaning water temperature is controlled directly from the unit an not from water input. Ideal for those in a busy household who don't have time to wait for the water to heat up each digital shower is packed with clever technology and lots of great features, a digital shower will certainly improve your showering experience.
All of our digital showers offer smart, simple showering at the push of a button. Many contain varying features such as: LED light indicators which flash whilst the water temperature is warming, and then remain on once the water has reached the correct temperature. An additional on/off remote control can also be included that is placed outside the shower and just to blow your mind that little bit further.
