The cottage always gives a positive mood, or just a complete rest from the bustle of city life in the lap of nature. A person sooner or later feels like to be alone with the forest, river, animals, sky, sun as much as possible. It gives him peace and great feeling.
Now back "from heaven to earth." A summer house is, of course, good, but one cannot do without a refreshing summer shower. And if it is made with your own hands, then this pleasure will be doubly more pleasant. So let's get started.
Materials for the construction of the shower
For this kind of structure, in principle, fit almost all the materials at hand. It can be slate, polycarbonate, the remains of pipes for the frame, brick, stone, board, in general, everything that remains from the construction does not hurt.
On the other hand, "temporary building" is also not particularly good, because with her have to mess around every season. Therefore, it is recommended to build something between capital and temporary.
Choosing a place for building a shower
First of all, the place should be sunny, not windy and not very far from home.

Construction of a country toilet with the hands on the site.Wooden country shower
Wood is a natural material, it blows warmth and comfort from it, and it will suit any design of the site.
In this example, consider a simple shower design. Here you can get by in a very easy way, i.e. make the usual support for the tank (frame), attach all the necessary parts, and close the shower area with the usual curtain for the bathrooms.
Option 1
At the previously selected place you need to make a solid foundation. To do this, we dig into the ground metal or asbestos-cement pipes with a height of about 2 meters.
The next step is to make a sturdy wooden frame booth. Next, set the frame in the middle of the base. The booth should be as comfortable as possible in size, so think it over beforehand. Then we sheathe the walls with a board, without leaving a gap between them.
We also sew the floor with a board, but leaving small gaps, you can additionally install special grilles and a drain pipe. The ceiling must be strong enough to support the weight of the water tank. This will help strong transverse beams. Or install the tank not on the roof, but on one of the sides for safety reasons.
The ceiling can be covered with transparent cellular polycarbonate, which, in turn, will ensure sufficient light penetration in the daytime. Install the tank, mixer, water supply. The tree should be protected from moisture and insects, covered with varnish or special composition.
Inside the booth will require a shelf and coat hooks. With the help of a waterproof curtain, you can separate the dressing area and towels. The appearance of the "house" is decorated with elements suitable for the design of the site. The shower is ready!
Option 2
An alternative to pipes is a supporting foundation for wooden flooring. We dig small, depending on the size of the shower, pit, lay sand, gravel, reinforcement, and then put a brick on the cement mortar.
Further, after a while we start to build the flooring. Board for flooring is better to use the terrace. She is not afraid of moisture, high and low temperatures. Flooring should be installed at intervals between the board for the penetration of moisture.
Then we prepare the cabin frame, install and follow the same sequence of actions as described above.

Radishes, growing in the garden.Heated Country Shower
Nature is a capricious creation, and rest should be comfortable, no matter what. A country shower is good when it is sunny and warm, but what to do if it rains? The answer to the question is quite simple - buy a heated water tank. There are a lot of similar tanks on sale.
Additionally, the shower will need to conduct electricity and, accordingly, install the outlet, and along with the lighting. And then neither cold nor darkness will be terrible.
Choosing a tank for a country shower
Choosing a tank is a very important point. It is worth weighing the "all the pros and cons" and choose based on the amount allocated.
Tank material:
- stainless steel
- plastic,
- galvanized steel.
The service life of these materials will be at least 10 years, but the cost of such a capacity is quite high. Well, in order to save money, fit a plastic tank. The volume also significantly affects the cost. On sale capacity from 40 to 250 liters. This question equally requires a rational answer and depends on the number of family members and other factors.
Also pay attention to the manufacturer and additional features. Tanks of the middle class, apart from electric heating and, possibly, water level, have no functions. Above average - water level, thermometer, hose with tap and watering can.
The LUX class has all the functions of the previous classes and additionally such: built-in thermostat (regulation of water heating temperature), automatic maintenance of the setpoint and shutdown when heated to the set temperature.

The advantages of a tank without heating are energy savings; there is no need to constantly monitor the water level. Cons - impossible to use in bad weather.
The advantages of the heated tank are obvious, but the minuses should also be taken into account - constant monitoring of the level and supply of water, additional costs for electricity, periodic disconnection from the network for security purposes, especially for plastic containers.
Comfort is always an additional cost and features. Some, of course, you can close your eyes, and some need to take. So, if the cottage is visited in the cool season, the shower should be capital, with lighting, heating, etc. It all depends on the means and preferences of the owner. Some people cost a minimum, while others need a "full board" class LUX.
Anyway, there is always a way out. The main thing - a good rest and "communication" with nature. Have a good rest!
