Steps for a first time shower buyer
JAKE SMITH

During the last three years of trainings at ROHL Headquarters, we have heard of a variety of ways to specify shower systems from experienced Showroom Consultants. The process of specifying a shower system can be tricky. In order to be successful, you really need to know your client. Some consumers know exactly what they want. Others may need to be lead through the maze of options. Here are some easy suggestions for drawing out what the ROHL consumer really wants in a shower system.

Stimulate Their Imagination: First-time clients often don’t know the difference between a premium bath with a thermostatic valve and a secondary bath with fewer options. To stimulate the imagination, try showing the consumer the ROHL shower kits we have set up in the ROHL Price Book, such as the Country Bath AKIT36 found on page 114. This is a premium system with all of the options: showerhead, handshower and body sprays. Once the client learns the most popular options, they can then make an educated decision.

Take Function into Account: Many first time buyers don’t know the spray pattern options available for showerheads and handshowers. ROHL carries shower products with single-function and multi-function spray patterns. Single-function shower roses, also known as rain heads, have a gentle rain pattern that deliver a lot of water, but without much force. Multi-function showerheads and handshowers, on the other hand, have a jetted action with adjustable spray, offering hard spray, massage, champagne spray and mist action options.

Three Tips from the Field: (1) Accompany an overhead shower rose with additional wall mount showerheads. This is a nice option for those who take daily showers but don’t need to wash their hair daily. (2) Employ separate shower valves for his and hers showers. This is helpful for partners with different temperature needs. (3) For secondary showers without a tub, add a handspray. A popular shower package with handspray is the Country Collection AKIT30 on page 112 of the ROHL Price Book. For households with children or pets, this makes a secondary bath a versatile and workable custom shower.
