Choose the right outdoor shower
Imagine a gentle breeze and warm water flowing down as you stand in the open air - it's an experience that only an outdoor shower can provide. An outdoor shower adds an extra dimension to your outdoor life, whether it's a refreshing start to the day or a relaxing end after the garden or beach. In this guide, you'll find everything you need to consider when choosing an outdoor shower for the Danish weather conditions, where both comfort and durability play a role.
Guide to outdoor showers
An outdoor shower should not only suit your outdoor space, but also your needs and the climate. For most people, the Danish climate is challenging, especially when it comes to products that are outside all year round. With a solution that empties automatically after use, the risk of frost cracking and bacterial growth in pipes and fittings is minimised. This means you can maintain the comfort and quality of your outdoor shower for many years - a detail that can make a big difference in your everyday life.
Wall-mounted outdoor shower
A wall-mounted outdoor shower combines elegance and functionality in a compact form, perfect for smaller outdoor spaces. Mounted directly on the wall, it offers a streamlined and minimalist look that easily integrates into everything from patio environments to pool areas. Choose a finish that matches your surroundings - like glass-blasted stainless steel for a matte, elegant look or classic copper that patinates beautifully over time. With its space-saving solution and frost-proof construction, you can enjoy your wall-mounted outdoor shower all year round, whatever the season.
Freestanding outdoor shower
A freestanding outdoor shower creates a luxurious and flexible bathing area in the garden or at the holiday home, where the shower can be placed exactly where it makes the most sense. This type of outdoor shower makes an aesthetic statement in the outdoor environment and is available in different finishes - from brass, which adds warmth and depth, to black, which creates an elegant contrast against nature. With a frost-proof solution, you can enjoy the shower all year round without worrying about damage during the winter months.
Three pieces of advice
1) Think about frost protection
Winter is beautiful but can be harsh. If you want to ensure your outdoor shower lasts through the seasons, frost protection is essential. With a frost-protected solution, you can enjoy outdoor bathing without worrying about frost damage.
2) Durability in the cold climate
Outdoor showers need to withstand the northern weather, where frost, rain and wind often make life hard for outdoor equipment. A shower with frost protection and weatherproof materials ensures you have a solution that withstands both snow and sun - and extends the life of your shower.
3) Consider the benefits of a self-emptying outdoor shower
Self-draining showers make life easier by automatically draining the water after use. This reduces the risk of frost damage and the need for maintenance, so you can enjoy your outdoor shower all year round without worry, whatever the temperature.
Surfaces that match your surroundings
When choosing an outdoor shower, it's not just functionality that matters - aesthetics should also reflect your personal style and harmonise with your surroundings. With a choice of finishes such as stainless steel, copper, polished steel, brass and black, you can create the look that suits your outdoor environment.
If you want an outdoor shower that can withstand the cold of winter, frost protection is essential for you to enjoy the benefits of outdoor bathing without worrying about the weather. The same goes for choosing the surface of the product: Some materials patinate beautifully, especially on touch points, while others remain timeless with easy maintenance.
Copper Patinates beautifully and is perfect for green gardens and natural materials. Polished steel provides a minimalist look that blends discreetly with modern elements such as concrete and glass. Glass-blasted stainless steel adds a more subtle matte finish that gives an elegant, timeless look and harmonises beautifully with both raw and organic environments. Brass adds luxury and depth with its warm glow while Fate creates an elegant contrast and emphasises the clean lines of the shower - ideal against green plants and bright terraces.
With these options, your outdoor shower can become an aesthetic and functional element that enhances your outdoor environment and reflects your style.
Where can I install my outdoor shower?
If you choose a frost-free outdoor shower as recommended, you can enjoy outdoor bathing all year round without worrying about frost damage. A freestanding outdoor shower offers maximum flexibility as it can be placed almost anywhere in the garden or at the holiday home. A wall-mounted outdoor shower, on the other hand, requires heat on the inside of the wall to allow the water to run out and avoid freezing. With a frost-free solution, you get a functional and durable choice that ensures your outdoor shower is always ready for use - no matter the season or location.
Can I install my outdoor shower myself?
We always recommend choosing a professional installer to install your outdoor shower if you want a durable solution that can withstand multiple seasons without worry.
Cold water, hot water or both?
Outdoor shower with cold or tempered water?
Some outdoor showers offer both cold and tempered water options via pre-mixed water. This makes it easy to turn the handle and take a refreshing rinse to suit the needs of the day, without any advanced installation. This solution is ideal for those who want a simple and hygienic outdoor shower.
Outdoor shower with both cold and hot water?
For those who want complete flexibility, there are showers with access to both cold and hot water so you can adjust the temperature to suit your mood and needs. This solution requires the installation of both cold and hot water, which can be done by a plumber to ensure a functional and comfortable showering experience in your garden all year round.
Note about solar-heated and self-emptying showers:
We do not recommend solar-heated outdoor showers or non-self-emptying variants as they can create conditions for bacteria growth during the warmer months. With a self-emptying shower, you avoid these challenges and ensure a more hygienic solution all year round.

Tips for your oasis
Partitioning can create privacy and make your outdoor shower an even more intimate experience. There are many options, from green plants and shrubs to screen walls or bamboo fences that can be integrated into the style of your garden. Screening also protects against wind, so you can enjoy your shower undisturbed and more comfortably.
Drainage is important to avoid water collecting around the shower area and creating stains or uneven surfaces. Depending on the location, you can choose different solutions such as natural drainage, gravel or an underground drain installation to direct water away and keep the area clean and dry.
Are you building a house? Consider an outdoor shower from the start
If you're dreaming of an outdoor shower for your new home, it's a good idea to consider both placement and screening from the start. By informing your contractor, the shower can be integrated as a natural part of the design to create a solution that fits perfectly with your home and outdoor environment.
