Душ — это незаменимый атрибут на своей даче. С помощью душа можно охладиться во время знойного полудня or же просто смыть с себя пыль и грязь после работы в саду or на огороде.

Конечно, можно обойтись и без душа, ходить на речку (хотя не всегда она близко находится и реки в наше время весьма грязные) or же греть воду в ведрах, но зачем экономить и лишать тебя удовольствия от ощущения чистоты и прохлады на коже?

When choosing a place for a shower, you should also pay attention to parity of the plot and the proximity of places for discharge of water, so as not to have to do wiring through the entire area.

Then you need to think soul destination - if it is a device for rinsing after a pool, then accordingly the cabin should stand near the pool and can be made открытый душ (только опоры и лейка с резервуаром сверху, без всевозможных ограждений), or построить обычный закрытый душ.

The frame is made quickly and easily: rectangular frame from metal pipes and wrapped on top with a film, on top is usually attached a tank of dark color for water. Below is the usual wooden lattice для ног, сбоку можно провести отвод воды or вообще не проводить.

But judging by appearance and properties, such a shower is temporary measure when building a more reliable and global form. The shower can be folded up to wash and immediately folded so that it does not take up space and does not spoil the overall look.
