Bathrooms today are not like the spaces in the past with just lights and mirrors. Technological advancements have started to play an important role in modern bathrooms as well according to extensive research. A modern bathroom presents a different view with touch-free faucets, wired Toilets, TV screens, cellular devices and temperature control.
As per research, one out of every five bathrooms has high-tech features in one form or the other. 43% of toilets have self-cleaning functions along with automatic lighting in bathtubs and various other features as explained before. Mr. Jamie Gold who is a San-Diego based designer proclaims that "It has become increasingly popular in recent years, as people's lives have gotten more integrated with their electronics". He is currently in the process of writing a book on modern bathroom renovations and also says that "The expectation is that your phone goes everywhere you go, providing news and entertainment while you get ready for your day or wind down at its end".
Current bathrooms have evolved from just basic spaces to a place where more time is spent and hence the need for modernization during renovation, something that is a core belief of professionals at TOV Restoration. With the advent of more technological endeavors, TOV Restoration predicts that soon bathrooms will include a fall feature in the flooring where an alarm is generated if someone falls in the bathroom. It is also a very common thought process of contractors and developers that every time a bathroom remodel is completed, a new glaring technological feature is added to the bathroom remodel magazines, which makes it a sure race against time.
Homeowners now get a vast number of options before the renovation is planned which includes a built in lighting system which is sensor-based, self cleaning fixtures, hands-free usage gadgets along with fall sensors and automatic de-odorizes. The best thing about modern gadgets is that they are in modular designs which means the whole bathroom does not need to be uprooted to install them. Furthermore, if a new technology emerges, the homeowner can simply replace it with the old one without breaking the bank.
The shower is another aspect of the bathroom that has been technologically revolutionized. Self-sensing showers along with washroom speakers enhance the whole showering experience. Waterproof speakers give you the option of connecting with your device so music and important phone calls/notifications are always easy to access, even when you are bathing or sitting on the toilet without taking the device with you. Lighting has also changed with new gadgets available in the market. A simple one-stop solution can convert traditional lighting with an app control lighting system which can be used to set the mood of the bathroom as well.
As modern bathroom technology continues to advance, numerous homeowners are now opting to include Docking Drawers in their setups. These innovative drawers cleverly integrate outlets and charging stations, providing a discreet solution for powering up various devices such as blow dryers, phones, tablets, and more within the vanity area.
