Types of Shower Enclosures
We offer clawfoot tub shower enclosures in several different styles and sizes, including extra wide models that allow for maximum use of the entire tub. Wall Mount Shower Enclosures have a faucet that attaches to the wall of the tub, usually on 3-3/8" centers.
Rim Mount Shower Enclosures have faucets that mount to the rim of the tub, usually on 7" centers. These faucets can be located at the drain end, or on the side of the tub.
Economy models are also available for outdoor applications or for projects with a limited budget. |
Features
Most of our enclosures include everything that is needed for converting your clawfoot tub into a functional shower, including faucet, riser pipe, shower ring, and showerhead. Some also have hand showers.
Most kits, except those labeled as economy, have faucets with ceramic disc valves which are polished to near perfect flatness and are impervious to line debris and mineral buildup. These kits are made with solid brass materials, and have real porcelain accents. |

Accessories and Extras
Most of our shower kits attach to the back wall, which is closest to the riser pipe, and the ceiling. If your tub is positioned away from a back wall, you can use a sidewall support instead. If your ceiling is slanted, you can use a swivel flange to mount the support.
You may want to add a hand-held shower conversion kit, or order an extended size shower curtain. Shower curtain hooks are available in several premium finishes to match the finish of the enclosure.
If you do not already have water supplies and a drain, you will need to purchase these as well before enjoying your beautiful new clawfoot tub setup. |
