Summary
Joseph Erlbach, co-owner of Rapid Recess Systems, discusses the benefits and installation process of curbless shower systems.
He explains that the idea for the system came about when his wife broke her leg and struggled with getting in and out of the shower.
The Rapid Recess System uses steel brackets to recess the plywood floor between floor joists, allowing for the installation of thin shower trays or pans.
Erlbach emphasizes that curbless showers are common in Europe and are more accessible and aesthetically pleasing than traditional showers with curbs.
He also addresses the challenges of getting installers to adopt the system and the importance of educating customers about the benefits of curbless showers.
