1425038 2016-09-07 23:23:00 Can a shower dome be added to old school semi-enclosed showers ? fully enclosed except the shower curtain and space above the shower curtain

instead of the dome , would raising all the sides in BBCMicros pic above all the way to the roof do the same thing ? for newer fancy pants showers ?

My son installed ours and just put right angle plastic mouldings along the two sides and back. Easy to slide out for cleaning as they collect dust on top pretty rapidly.

I think it makes the curtain sucking in problem worse as there's a 10cm gap between the top of the curtain and the bottom of the shower dome and it seems to funnel the airflow but it does reduce condensation on the mirror a bit (hence the semi-successful comment.

I think as mentioned above they really need the shower to be fully enclosed to work properly, otherwise the water vapour just escapes somewhere else. It was my intention to fit a shower door in future but cost has stopped me, the cheapo universal ones at the likes of Bunnings are not suitable and having one made to fit priced out at around $1k last I checked.
