Outdoor Showers: Your Guide to a Cracking Backyard Upgrade
Outdoor showers are taking Aussie homes by storm in 2025. They mix luxury with nature, perfect for our climate. This guide walks you through why they’re ace, how to design them, and why The Blue Space is your best bet. Ready to transform your backyard? Let’s crack on.
Why Outdoor Showers Are a Winner
Boost Your Mood and Health
Outdoor showers lift your spirits. Fresh air and sunlight hit you while you rinse off. Studies say natural light ups your vitamin D and cuts stress. In our warm weather, it’s a no-brainer for a daily dose of calm.
Keep the Mess Outside
Got kids or pets? Sand and mud stay out of your house. After a beach day or gardening, rinse off quick. It saves your indoor floors and slashes cleaning time. Practical as anything.
Save Water and Go Green
They’re not just fun—they’re smart. Using them cuts indoor water use. Pair with rainwater tanks, and you’re onto a sustainable winner. It’s a small change that adds up, especially with our eco push in 2025.
Up Your Property Value
Buyers love outdoor showers. They’re a standout feature, especially in coastal spots or hot regions. It’s an investment that pays off when you sell—or just enjoy now.
Designing Your Outdoor Shower
Rustic Retreat
Picture this: wooden slats, a stone floor, and a rainfall showerhead. It blends into your garden like it’s always been there. Add plants for a bush vibe. The Blue Space’s rain showers nail this look.
Modern Edge
Go sleek with clean lines and metal finishes. A wall-mounted shower in brushed brass screams style. Minimal clutter, maximum impact. Check out brushed brass showers for that sharp finish.
Tropical Getaway
Bamboo walls, bright tiles, and a handheld showerhead. It’s like a holiday at home. Perfect for Queensland’s heat or a backyard oasis anywhere. Grab a hand-held shower head for flexibility.
Spa Luxury
Think big: ceiling showers, ambient lights, and a bench. It’s your private retreat. Add a niche for soaps. The Blue Space’s ceiling showers and bathroom shower niches make it lush.
Practical Stuff to Sort Out
Pick the Right Spot
Find a private corner near your water line. Sun exposure keeps it warm. Avoid nosy neighbours—screen it off if needed. Easy access matters too.
Weatherproof It
Our sun and rain demand tough gear. Rust-proof metals and slip-resistant floors are musts. The Blue Space’s stainless steel showers handle the elements like champs.
Plan the Plumbing
Hook it to your water supply and drainage. A pro can sort it quick. Rainwater’s an option—just filter it. Add floor wastes for tidy runoff.
Add Privacy and Comfort
Slats, glass, or plants block the view. In cooler spots like Tassie, toss in a heater or enclosure. Keeps it usable all year.
Types of Outdoor Showers
Wall-Mounted
Fits against your house or shed. Simple, space-saving, and stylish. Great for tight yards. See wall shower heads for options.
Freestanding
Stands alone anywhere. Makes a bold statement in big gardens. Pair with shower arms for a custom setup.
Enclosed
Full walls for total privacy. Feels like an extra room. Ideal if you’re shy or live close to neighbours. The Blue Space’s showers cover this too.
