In Korea almost all homes have heated floors and the entire bathroom is basically treated like a shower. Which I like in some ways. But I really think they should more directly separate the toilet from the design in a separate closed off area. Most of the time it’s just a small divider between the showering area and the sink toilet.
But I guess the point of my comment is that the heated floors are awesome and basically standard. Where as in the US that’s a luxury and something you have to specifically design into the bathroom. It really avoids that nasty feeling of stepping onto a cold floor. No mat required.
I would love a wet room bathroom. I really regret not doing that when renovating the ensuite where I live now. it wasn’t my bathroom at the time though…
I put a little space heater and run it while I’m showering so that it’s warm when I get out.
I do this too but put the heater in the shower with me - makes the space all nice and toasty.
Oooh I should try that with the bathtub.
Some houses have shitty electric in the bathrooms so to make sure it keeps working with the steam, i run an extension cord to a bedroom outlet.
Do you think it would work if I used a portable generator in the room with me while the space heater is in the tub?
Just make sure to keep the windows shut so the heat can’t escape
I’ll seal them up with plastic sheets and caulk to make sure.
Wow i don’t know. It’s worth a shot! I bet the exhaust is exfoliating.

I’ve only ever experienced heated floors at a hotel in Vegas. It was so nice. I wish I had it, but the space heater is my white trash version of it.

I have a heat bulb in my bathroom so I use that in the colder months. I love it.
