Bathroom radio

Types of radios for the bathroom

In order to decide on the choice of a suitable shower radio, you need to familiarize yourself with the existing types:

Portable. The body of the radio receiver is hermetically sealed, so it is a completely safe device. You can take it straight into the shower with you or leave it on the edge of the tub and not be afraid to get it wet. This type of radio is affordable and runs on batteries. The disadvantage of such a radio is instability, it cannot be attached, and therefore unsuccessful falls are possible.

• floating. It is attractive because it has a variety of shapes: it can be a boat or a penguin, or a favorite cartoon character. Water protection is similar to the previous type. This radio may have additional features such as a clock or a backlight. However, such a radio also has disadvantages - this is a high cost and the problem of mechanical damage, for example, falling under a strong jet.
• Built-in. If you are still in the process of renovating and are just thinking about how to make a bathroom and what to add to it original, a built-in radio will be a great option. Firstly, you will get really good music with excellent sound, and secondly, your guests will appreciate the non-triviality of yours. In terms of installation, the recessed radio usually uses a niche in the wall or false ceiling, and the speakers can be attached to the wall. This radio has obvious disadvantages: the complexity of installation, high price, a small choice of design.

Types of radio for the bathroom which device to prefer

There are only three main types of receivers that are made specifically for the bathroom - these are portable, floating and built-in bathroom radios.

Portable radio. As a rule, it is made in a sealed case, which is given a special shape. Such a radio receiver is absolutely safe for operation in conditions of high humidity. It works exclusively on batteries - you can place the receiver in any place convenient for you. It can just as easily be hung on a ledge inside a shower stall or placed on the edge of a bathtub without worrying about the radio falling into the water. The main advantage of such a receiver for the bathroom is its low cost. The cheapest device from this series of devices for the bathroom is an analog radio, which, compared to digital, has one drawback - such a device does not remember the channels.

floating radio. In principle, it is practically no different from its portable counterpart. It also works on batteries, in a similar way such a receiver is protected from water. Their only difference is the original design. In shape, such radios can resemble a submarine, a waterfowl, or a favorite cartoon character from childhood. Such a bathroom radio in most cases is equipped with a clock, lighting and even a mirror with an anti-fogging effect. The disadvantage of such a receiver is the cost - we can safely say that this type of radio is the most expensive among all such devices.
Built-in radio in the bathroom. If you want to equip your bathroom with really high-quality music, with a sound that is clear and rich in all frequencies, then you can’t imagine better than a built-in radio. The only thing that can confuse in such a device is its installation. You will have to provide a place in the wall not only for the receiver itself, but also to find small niches for mounting the speaker system. In most cases, speakers are installed in a false ceiling - some models of radios are even equipped with special acoustics. According to the method of installation in the ceiling, it is similar to spotlights.An equally common option for mounting speakers is their wall mounting. In this regard, the simplest acoustic devices for radio are speakers that are simply hung on the walls.

In general, if you do not notice the complexity of installing a built-in bathroom radio, then it can be considered the best solution, especially if you take into account the functionality and sound of the speakers, correctly distributed in the room.

In general, there is plenty to choose from, and here it is already a personal matter for everyone. And we, having dealt with the varieties of bathroom receivers, will move on and consider the criteria for choosing these devices.

Benefits of Buying a Shower Radio

The positive side of buying a radio in the shower is to create a mood. Whether it's the morning when you need to wake up quickly, be alert and in good shape. What could be better than cheerful favorite music?! Or is it an evening after hard work, when you want to lie down, relax and enjoy a calm, quiet melody. Or maybe this is a date that smoothly turned into a bath with fragrant foam, in this case, romantic music that creates the appropriate mood is the best fit.

• Also, we must not forget that such a radio will definitely add zest to the overall image of the bathroom, and if it is a built-in radio for well-placed speakers, then the interior of such a bathroom can easily be called exclusive.
• Another small but pleasant advantage is the ability to listen to the news or a horoscope for the coming day during the morning shower. As they say, you can combine business with pleasure.
• Also on sale are radios with a connector for a flash drive. This will allow you to record your favorite songs and play them depending on your mood. No ads, no news - just music.

Why built-in structures are suitable

A bathroom or shower cabin is characterized by high humidity, in which it is quite difficult to ensure the operation of acoustic devices, and even more so to transmit high-quality sound through open speakers.

The built-in radio is devoid of these shortcomings due to the use of moisture-resistant diffusers and emitters of acoustic waves, the complete concealment of electronic boards and cable laying inside the walls.

Control elements are made in the form of moisture-resistant touch panels or surfaces that are sensitive to finger pressure.

Built-in models have a number of advantages over portable bathroom models:

1. Power is supplied not through batteries, but from the mains or hybrid, which allows you to listen to transmissions for as long as you need.
2. The built-in radio has much more functionality, since there is no need to reduce the size of the device as much as possible.
3. The presence of a remote control.
4. The body, with the exception of the front panel, is completely hidden, and the shower cabin is maximally protected from electrical breakdowns.
5. The risk of damage to the radio in the bathroom is minimal, as it is securely fixed to the wall and has a shockproof function.
6. The ability to use high-quality acoustics that can be built into walls or ceilings outside the main body of the radio and enjoy high-quality surround sound.

In the event of a breakdown, it can only be repaired on site, and then not in all models, which will cause additional costs.

The shower cabin will allow you to mount the device only with certain dimensions, and only specialists can perform the installation procedure itself.

Varieties of models

To date, in stores you can find completely different radios for the bathroom. Buying them is not difficult, but choosing a quality one is problematic.

There are several different types of radio ... Let's try to give an exhaustive description of each variety.

Built-in radios

Built-in radio for the bathroom are small in size and can be installed:

• On the walls like a socket or a switch
• In the false ceiling, as well as recessed luminaires
• Directly inside the shower

It is not difficult to control such radios - this can be done both with the help of buttons and with the help of a remote control.

Separate built-in models, in addition to the main functions, also have the “slip” mode and the function of automatic switching on when the light is turned on at the same time as additional ones.

With certain slip mode settings, the radio may turn itself off 30 minutes after the end of the radio program.

If you connect it to a room switch, then it will be able to independently turn on and off at the same time as the light.

No matter how convenient the built-in radio models for the bathroom are, they also have some disadvantages:

• based on their location, there are not so many options for their manufacture;
• their mobility is very limited.

Portable models

The portable bath radio has a simple design and is easy to operate.

Thanks to its special waterproof housing, the portable radio can be used completely safely in high humidity conditions. In addition to this, the operation of the radio is carried out using standard AAA batteries.

When bathing, the portable radio can be taken into the shower cabin with you, and it can also be conveniently placed on the edge of the bath.

Its compact size allows you to take it with you on various trips and travels. In addition, some portable radio models are equipped with an unusual color backlight, which is very convenient to use in the dark.

The undoubted advantage of such receivers is their rather low cost. Analog models are even cheaper, but do not have a function that allows you to save the desired radio channels.

floating on the water

The floating radio for the bathroom is presented in a very unusual and interesting design. In stores specializing in the sale of such equipment, radios come across in the form of:

• Submarine
• Favorite cartoon characters
• ducks
• Various colors
• Inhabitants of the deep sea
• other forms

In addition, manufacturers have made the functions of the device more versatile - they supplied the floating radio with a coated mirror that is not subject to fogging and a clock with colored illumination, equipped with a cyclic color change.

These additional features will help create a pleasant environment in the bathroom, more conducive to romance.

The only drawback of these models is their higher cost compared to conventional radios.

In this article, we tried to tell you everything you need to know when buying a radio in the bathroom.

Selection criteria on what to focus on when buying a radio in the shower

So, you have decided to purchase a bathroom radio, but where to start your choice, and which features are really important, and which ones are rather a nice addition.

• First of all, we choose the type: portable, floating or built-in radio. With this point, everything is clear, it is dismantled above.
• Budget. After choosing the type, you need to decide how much you are willing to spend on this device. And here it should be noted that it is not worth saving, since this is an electrical device and you must be sure of its safety and durability.
• Next, you need to select a manufacturer. And here it is better to rely on a popular, proven brand. Yes, perhaps such a radio will turn out to be more expensive, but it will be a reliable product with a quality guarantee. Manufacturers such as GIRA, EIS and Peha are definitely leaders in their industry. At this point, it is worth stopping and analyzing in more detail all manufacturers. Outline the advantages and disadvantages.

EIS (Eis)

This Spanish brand has five new built-in radio models, KBSound

The first and important advantage is the ease of assembly and ease of installation in any niche, be it furniture or walls. Connecting directly to the network

This model has a high quality and purity of sound. The original design of the speakers in the form of lamps will complement the image of an elegant one. It is also impossible not to note the ease of use and the presence of an improved remote control. Another significant advantage of this system is the presence of the so-called "Intelligent Mode" - this is the ability to adjust the volume in accordance with the noise level in the bathroom, this happens automatically. That is, when you turn on the water, the radio responds to noise and increases the volume. The disadvantage of this radio is the high price.

Gira (Gira)

This German company has been on the market for a very long time, has established itself as a sign of quality. A small built-in radio in the form of a switch is sure to fit into your interior, and its reliability will delight for many years. The advantages of this model will be its capabilities: memory of previous settings, auto on and off, a wide range, thanks to which you are provided with high-quality reception. And finally, a varied design that will perfectly complement the interior. The disadvantage, if you can call it that, is a mono kit, that is, there is only one column, but if you want two or more, you can always order additionally.

Peha (Peha)

Also a popular German brand. A distinctive feature of this radio is the many installation possibilities and additional "gadgets" such as a stereo amplifier, connection of various devices such as iPhone or iPad, additional speakers, memory card and so on. Definitely, if you are not just an amateur, Peha is the ideal radio for the shower, but it must be admitted that it is very expensive.

The next factor is the specifications. Perhaps this is the most important selection criterion. After all, the sound quality of the radio depends on them.

So, pay attention to the following characteristics:

• setting volume, power, frequency
• the ability to memorize your favorite radio stations
• the presence of a connector for a flash drive or other external media
• the ability to control remotely (this criterion is relevant for built-in radio)
• auto on and off function. The presence of a special sensor that monitors the presence or absence of a person in. That is, the radio can be set in such a way that it will turn on as soon as you enter the bathroom and turn off after, for example, five minutes after leaving.

Another criterion, not so much significant as desirable, is the choice of design. Since, in addition to size and functions, I want the radio to match the style and fit correctly into the overall ensemble.

An important point when buying any radio is its safety, since the electrical device is constantly in contact with water in a room with high humidity. Therefore, we kindly ask you to provide you with a certificate of quality and safety when buying a radio in the bathroom.
