are located along the walls. Enough space should be provided between the upper
tier and the ceiling. For equipping small steam rooms, compact corner
structures are often used, which allow for rational use of room space. Very
small steam rooms are equipped with folding shelves
Flooring shelves have a
stepped design. The height of the lower tier is from 40 cm, the middle one is
mounted at the level of 70-80 cm, the upper level is located at a height of 120
cm from the floor. The optimum width of the shelves is 80-90 cm, for the lower
tier a width of 40 cm is allowed. The length of the shelf can vary between
150-180 cm. These are average parameters that are specified individually for
each project.

finishing the bath, the bench bar should not be defective, otherwise the rest
on the bath shelf will be uncomfortable. It is important that the wood is
resistant to heat and moisture, only in this case the shelves will serve for
many years. If you are thinking about the manufacture of shelves in a bath in
