Abstract
The method includes the introduction of foam into a shower cubicle, a vapor bath, or another sanitary facility. The foam is introduced at a temperature of −15° C. to 20° C., preferably of 0° C. to 18° C., particularly preferred of 5° C. to 15° C., from a foam generator into the shower cubicle, the vapor bath, or the other sanitary facility. The foam preferably has the temperature at an outlet of the foam generator. Apart from that, the disclosure also relates to a device for such a method according to the disclosure and a shower cubicle or a vapor bath having such a device.
Claims10
A method for introducing foam into a shower cubicle, a vapor bath, or another sanitary facility, the method comprising the steps of:
- lowering a freezing point of liquid water to below 0° C. by admixing a component into the liquid water;
- supplying the liquid water from a cold water reservoir to an inlet of a foam generator, the cold water reservoir including a cooling means that sets the liquid water at a temperature that is below 0° C.,
- supplying soap via a soap inlet and admixing the soap to the liquid water before entering the foam generator,
- producing foam by blowing air into a mixture of soap and liquid water at a temperature of −18° C. to below 0° C., and
- introducing the foam into the shower cubicle, the vapor bath, or the other sanitary facility through an outlet of the foam generator, wherein the foam has a temperature of −15° C. to 20° C. at the outlet.
A method of introducing foam into a sanitary facility, the method comprising:
- lowering a freezing point of liquid water to below 0° C. by admixing a component into the liquid water;
- cooling the liquid water in a cold water reservoir with a cooling means that sets the liquid water at a temperature that is below 0° C.;
- supplying the liquid water from the cold water reservoir and soap to an inlet of a foam generator,
- producing foam by blowing air through a bubble plate disposed within the foam generator into a mixture of the soap and the liquid water, the mixture of soap and liquid water being at a temperature of −18° C. to below 0° C., and
- introducing the foam into the sanitary facility through an outlet of the foam generator,
- wherein the temperature of the foam when introduced into the sanitary facility is between −15° C. and 20° C.
A method of introducing foam into a sanitary facility, the method comprising:
- lowering a freezing point of liquid water in a cold water supply to below 0° C. by admixing a component into the liquid water,
- cooling a temperature of the liquid water in the cold water supply to below 0° C.,
- providing cold water at a temperature that is below 0° C. from the cold water supply to an inlet of the foam generator,
- providing warm water at a temperature between 30° C. and 60° C. from a warm water supply to the inlet of the foam generator,
- controlling a temperature of the water supplied to the inlet of the foam generator via a control valve coupled to the cold water supply and the warm water supply such that the temperature of the liquid water in the foam generator is in the range of −18° C. to below 0° C.,
- supplying air into a mixture of soap and the water that has a temperature in the range of −18° C. to below 0° C. in the foam generator to generate foam, and
- introducing the foam into the sanitary facility through an outlet of the foam generator.
