Moen / Bath Suite

Among Moen’s modern-look product releases is the Genta Bath Suite, providing a compact design with contemporary styling in a chrome finish. Adding to the faucet’s appeal: water flows in a twisting ribbon. The collection includes tub/shower and shower-only options with a three-function shower-head and valve-only trim. Genta access-ories are also available, including a single robe hook, pivoting paper holder, hand--towel bar, and towel bars in 18- and 24-inch lengths. 

Kohler / Digital Shower System

The DTV Prompt Shower System, with its sleek styling and streamlined design, is Kohler’s shower for the digital age. Controlled through a small touchscreen with an intuitive interface, the DTV Prompt eliminates the need for handles and knobs in the shower, creating an uncluttered aesthetic, while ensuring shower customization, with any combination of rainhead, showerhead, handshower, and body sprays, and safer water-temperature control via its digital thermostatic valve technology.

Kohler / Advanced Shower System

Where Kohler’s DTV Prompt is the entry-level model in the company’s digital shower series, the DTV+ is its upgrade. Complete with an array of additional features, such as spray-intensity adjustment and the ability to change the angle of the water delivery, the DTV+ takes the best features of its predecessor and improves upon and adds to them. This is the most advanced shower system Kohler offers. 

Saniflo / Wastewater Pump

SFA Saniflo’s Saniswift Drainage Pump is an above-floor plumbing solution for situations where there is no below-floor drainage. The Saniswift will pump wastewater away from up to three fixtures, including sinks, washing machines, and dishwashers. Equipped with three 1 ½-inch inlets, the Saniswift pump can remove up to 24 gallons of wastewater per minute. Saniflo also offers the Sanivite (shown), a more heavy-duty above-floor plumbing solution that’s also capable of removing wastewater from showers, bathtubs, and specialty sinks. 

Sterling / Bath/Shower Unit

This bathing unit from Sterling, a Kohler company, consists of modular panels connected with Dry-Block seal; no caulk is needed. The entire unit is made of Vikrell, Sterling’s exclusive long-lasting, stain- and scratch-resistant material that’s easy to clean and won’t chip or fade. There is abundant shelving and a unique channeled water containment system to prevent leaks. Available sizes include 60 by 30 inches and 60 by 32 inches in White or Kohler Biscuit. 

Delta / Grab Bars

Delta’s Decorative ADA Grab Bars are offered in four styles—Traditional, Transitional, Contemporary Round, and Angular Modern—to seamlessly blend into any space. A retrievable wall anchor included with each unit helps ensure easy mounting, delivering resistance against 500 pounds of force—twice the 250 pounds required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The grab bars are currently offered in Chrome, Brilliance Stainless, Champagne Bronze, and Venetian Bronze finishes and a range of lengths from 18 to 42 inches.

ARC Inc / Curbless Shower

Structural Curbless Shower System is made possible by TrueDEK’s Classic Foundation panels, which are just 7/8-inch thick, can be cut to fit using ordinary tools, and are made from glass-reinforced plastic. While the panels have a flat underside for easy installation over floor joists, their surface is sloped toward the shower’s center drain. Put together, TrueDEK’s curbless shower is capable of supporting 840 pounds over open joists (and 1,100 pounds if bays are blocked with plywood).

Kohler / Shower Fixture

By mounting onto existing plumbing, the HydroRail from Kohler offers a spa-quality experience without having to reroute plumbing or change the valve. HydroRail comes in four configurations: handshower, fixed showerhead and handshower, and arched or beam rainhead and handshower. Rainheads with Katalyst spray infuse
air into the water for large, full drops.

Kohler / Shower Wall

The Choreograph collection from Kohler is manufactured from Serica, a durable proprietary material, and enables the family bathroom to be the space that works for everyone by bringing functionality and organization into the shower. Kohler offers a variety of wall panels, storage solutions, and accessories in a range of colors, patterns, and textures to match any décor. The walls can be trimmed on site for custom cuts and installed over tile. The joints of the Choreograph collection leave a minimal seam, making shower walls easier to clean and maintain.
