[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 483655, member: 6969"] So are we going to argue, that if the shower has a glass surround and a glass door, then the actual shower is a room in it's own right, and the rest of the space it opens onto (where the basin and WC are) is a separate room? If not the argument that the cupboard is not in the bathroom gets a little weak. I have only once installed a shower into a bedroom, and I had to point out to the owner that there was only one spot, right in the diametrically opposite corner that just met the 3M rule, so that was the only place he could have a socket in that bedroom. Of course there is a long extension now lead plugged into that socket to power the tv sitting on a cabinet right next to the shower....... I have installed a type of "shower pod" that did the rounds up here a few years ago, They were basically a packaged shower with jets that couls squirt at you from all angles, some fancy lights and a radio, all controlled by a touch panel. They were hideous things. One went wrong 6 months after I installed it, only then did we find there was a control box on the back of it, and to get at that we had to pull the whole thing out from it's corner, and found a blown fuse in that box. What a stupid design to put what need to be accessible servicable parts right where in most cases you cannot get at them., [/QUOTE]
