Cast acrylic is one of today’s more popular materials for tubs and showers. It’s warm to the touch, making for a more relaxing tub experience, and the water stays warm for a much longer time. The highly durable, non-porous solid surface of the MyControl Bathing System resists scum and mildew, making it easy to clean. And if it’s cleaned according to manufacturer directions, the surface will retain its showroom finish indefinitely. Acrylic Bathtubs and showers are available in a wide variety of shapes and colors. In fact, it is only because MyControl is made with acrylic that it’s one-of-a-kind design can be obtained. The cast acrylic sheets used to manufacture MyControl’s basin and door is unique because the color goes all the way through the material — it’s not just sprayed on the surface. This means the color won’t fade over time, and it will absorb impacts that chip other materials. The Cast acrylic used to manufacture MyControl is slightly more expensive than fiberglass, but over the long term, it’s your best investment. With normal use, you’ll probably wear out before your MyControl Bathing System made with cast acrylic will!

Solenoids are used to provide water flow from the wall shower, hand-held shower, water faucet, and to the bathing system door seal. We only recommend that you use the best, Grohtherm “High flow” thermostatic temperature control valves. Accurate to 1 degree Fahrenheit, temperature is selected by dialing the temperature handle to a setting within the 70 to 110 degree comfort zone. The Grohterm knob design features a safety stop at 100 degrees for added protection. Vist the water control & management page for more details.
