Choose a place for the construction of a summer shower
Before you start building, think about the place where your architectural structure will be in the form of a summer shower.
We proceed from the fact that the summer shower should be in an open sunny place.
If during the day the sun's rays constantly illuminate the summer shower, you do not have to think about supplying power to heat the water. The sun's rays are able to heat up a decent amount of water over a light day.
Having determined the place of installation of the summer shower, one should also consider the issue with the removal of water drains.
Humidity, and if several people wash in the shower, it will always be increased, and this naturally leads to the appearance of various insects.
This means that the second condition for choosing a place for a summer shower is that the summer shower should be at a certain distance from the residential building.
Choose a place so that the location of the summer shower is sunny, remote from residential buildings and to this place you can easily bring water to fill the tank of the summer shower.
Arrangement of a drain pit or an elementary sewage system
A very important point, when erecting a summer shower, is the creation of a small pit to collect sewage.
On the installation site, a shallow pit is digging around the shower, depending on the soil.
If the soil is light sandy or sandy-loamy, it will be sufficient to have holes of up to 0.5 meters deep.
And if the soil is heavy, it absorbs water poorly and the pit will have to be made deeper and it may be necessary to make a water drain.
After the pit is dug, it is necessary to strengthen a piece of land around the pit, close the pit with a lid, make a depression in the lid in the form of a drain to drain the water.
You can concrete a small area around the pit, again make a slope to drain the water into the pit.
Now, if you install a flooring, and in the form of a flooring you can use plastic pallets - the bottom of the shower is ready.
Building a shower cubicle
After the foundation of the future summer soul is made, you can begin to create a shower cabin.
Shower cabins can be built in different ways.
Consider the simplest, fastest-erected way of building a shower cubicle made of polycarbonate.
For this we purchase the necessary material:
-metallic corner 45x45 mm (from it we will weld the frame of the future shower, do not forget about the door);
-polycarbonate, better colored (it should cover all sides and the ceiling of the shower, the door is also polycarbonate);
- water capacity, installed on the roof of the shower;
- a watering can.
The dimensions of the shower are arbitrary and depend on your wishes, but do not forget that the shower must stand firmly, otherwise the wind can turn it over.
Think about the moment of fixing the shower.
Above mentioned variant of the summer shower is the cheapest, durable and will not spoil the aesthetic appearance of your site.
You can offer a shower cabin made of wood.
But, in order to make the structure stable, the frame of the wooden shower must be made of a thick bar.
In this case, the tree should be of good quality and all wooden structures must be treated with a means of protection against decay of wood.
If the base of the frame structure is concreted in the ground, the lower part will have to be well grinded or wrapped with a ruberoid.
The floors of the summer shower can be made from wooden boards, but leave the distance between the boards at least 1 cm.
But it is better to use plastic pallets, they do not rot and serve for a long time.
Built a summer shower of boards must be painted outside, in order to give the structure aesthetic appearance.
The roof of a wooden summer shower can be made a saddle from a metal profile.
Install the water tank
The water tank can be both metal and plastic.
Capacity depends on the amount of water consumed.
The most common is the volume of 100 and 200 liters.
In order for the water in the container to heat up faster, the container must be dark or black.
The dark color of the tank is capable of more active absorption of sunlight and the water in the tank heats up faster.
installation of the tank on the roof, it is necessary to weld a metal base for the tank. The dimensions of the base depend directly on the size of the container.
First it is necessary to fix the base under the tank to the shower frame, and then the tank itself is installed.
To the tank water is supplied from the water supply system and a crane is installed.
From the bottom of the tank to the shower is made a pipe with a valve, at the end of the pipe is attached a shower head.
The watering can be mounted on a flexible hose.
Having done such work, you will get a real pleasure after a hard day, strengthen your health and can proudly say: "Summer shower, the work of my golden hands."
To complete the work, plan a beautiful path from the hozpostroek to the summer soul and decorate the approach with beautifully flowering bushes and annual plants.
