Transcript | Mott Modern Plum The Modern Bathroom IHE importance of a properly equipped bathroom in the home is indisputable, and most architects and builders recognize this fact. Indeed, many who can afford to do so, provide a bathroom for each sleeping room or suite. During the past few years many radical improvements in construction and types of sanitary fixtures have taken place and a perusal of this catalogue should greatly assist those contemplating building or remodeling their bathrooms. Pages 8 to 17 illustrate model bathroom interiors of wide variety and design, ranging from the finest to the more moderate priced fixtures. Perhaps the fixture which has gained most in popularity is the shower bath. The modern bathroom is not considered complete without the provision of a shower. The advent of a mixing valve, thermostatically controlled now makes it possible for the bather to regulate and maintain the temperature of the water to suit his individual taste. The imperial porcelain built-in bath is now also an accepted fact; the noisy water closet has been banished, and in its place we find the quiet-acting syphon jet closet. Before making your selection of fixtures it would be to your advantage to visit our nearest sho\ where are displayed model modern bathrooms. |
