People now
days, prefer shower units over
bath especially in the western. So it is important
to know the word shower. But hold on, the bathing
activity existed during the dark ages, but many research
says that shower is using less water than regular
bathing; it is also have some kind of relaxing moments
while you taking
shower.
Like the
research says that bathing activity were already taken
place in the dark ages, people at that time bathing in
the rivers and streams. While showering taken place under
the waterfalls, they using the falling water to washed
away the grime and filth on their
bodies.
While the
ancient Greek had a sort of showering activity, at that
time the servants pour buckets of cold water on the
bather as they scrubbed themselves clean. This activity
was not as relaxing as steam sauna and the other types of
sauna, this kind a bath are the ancient Greek already
known.
The same
activity also can be found in the society of ancient
Egyptians, they do the same as the ancient Greek did. In
fact, the ancient Babylon had built aqueducts and waste
pipes before the Europe manage to develop them in 2000
years latter.
The wealthy and
important Babylonians had access to water in their private
bathrooms. The famous king Nebuchadnezzar had a personal
shower room, where he can bath with soap made from ash while
his servant help him by poured water onto his
body.
Bathing became more popular when
the queen made a request for a bathtub installation of her own
bathtub. This is the time where bathtub was famously looked
upon. Although during the dark ages of Europe and among early
Christians, bathing was considered as unholy, lighthearted
waste of time for many years. The first shower was invented
1810. The entire device was made out of metal, painted in
bamboo like. But the early
stage of this shower units only provide cold
water, so it will not surpassed the relaxing and comfortable
feeling of a hot tub, a spa or an outdoor hot tub. Then people
start to leave shower.
Finally in the
1800s indoor plumbing was invented and then 1889, JL Mott
Iron Works invented a brand new showering equipment; this
device was just like the modern power shower. So here we
are enjoying various shower
units
