Abstract

The present invention is designed to allow a single person or a group of people the ability to control and access shower settings through an automated process. An access panel, mounted outside of the shower, is utilized to select the pressure and temperature of the shower and a switch located in the shower is utilized to direct the water flow to the faucet or the shower head. The switch also contains buttons which allow a user to adjust the temperature and pressure of the water after the system is activated. To use the system, a user first presses a button on the access panel which automatically adjusts the temperature and pressure of the water to a predetermined setting. The user then uses the switch to direct the flow of the water or to fine tune the pressure and temperature of the water. The present invention can also be accessed remotely via a remote control which can control the access panel.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention generally relates to the field of automating shower control. More specifically, the present invention provides a system and method for controlling access to a shower through an access panel which is capable of controlling the operation of the bath and shower.

Each time a person takes a shower, he / she first adjusts the hot and cold knobs of the bath faucet until the water is at the desired temperature and pressure. The person then turns a knob or uses a similar mechanism to direct the water from the faucet to the shower head. [0003] There are many variations on the setup that the bath may have. For example, some baths do not contain a faucet and only contain a shower head. These are often referred to as shower stalls since it is only possible to take a shower in one. Other baths may only...
