<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a shower apparatus and its operation method, which provide comfortable shower bathing even in winter. <P>SOLUTION: A warm air supply system of a shower unit 2 is composed of a high static pressure sirocco fan 22 and a heat exchanger 21 in a casing 2a, and a warm air delivery portion 26 at the lower part of the casing 2a. The sirocco fan 22 absorbs air in a bathroom through a duct 10, and feeds the air to the heat exchanger 21. The warm air delivery portion 26 includes a chamber portion 26a, a warm air passage 26d composed of two truncated conical portions 26b and 26c, and a blowing port 26e formed into a ring shape. Warm air from the blowing port 26e forms an air curtain having a truncated conical surface to enclose hot water sprayed from shower heads 27a-27d from the outside. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
