University showers experience heavy use on a daily basis. With this level of traffic, universities need shower options that are durable, reliable and easy to install. Two popular choices for university showers are standard and custom Meridian Solid Surface® shower bases from Tower Industries.
Standard shower bases are available in a variety of sizes and configurations. If your shower configuration does not match any of the standard sizes, Meridian Solid Surface® custom shower bases are the way to go. Give students the comfort and convenience of quality showers in your university’s residence halls with Meridian Solid Surface® standard and custom shower bases.
Find the Right Fit
When deciding on options for your university shower install or retrofit, size is the first place to start. Tower Industries manufactures Meridian Solid Surface® shower bases in 32 to 39 inch, 40 to 59 inch and 60+ inch options. Standard size bases are available in different drain configurations, but if these sizes do not fit your shower dimensions, do not worry. Tower Industries manufactures Basic or Elite custom shower bases that allow for unique drain configurations and threshold options.
Advantages of Standard Shower Bases
Standard shower bases are manufactured to set dimensions, making them an ideal choice for quick and easy installation. For shower upgrades requiring quick turnarounds, standard options can be manufactured quickly for your project. Although competitor standard shower bases may be limited in features, Tower Industries provides several options for standard bases, such as drain locations and accessibility features. For instant access to shower bases that are easy to install, look to standard shower bases.
Advantages of Custom Shower Bases
For non-standard sizes or unique shapes, custom shower bases are the answer. When there is no flexibility to change the size of the shower space or to move plumbing, custom bases are the way to go.
