Rotating pressure sprays mounted about 6-7' up that spray the shower walls and bathroom floor, aiming diagonally down. Water would quickly drain via floor drains. Besides the toilet, it really only needs to deal with a bit of dust that wouldn't be hard to dislodge if cleaned every few days. I don't think it would need to be so hot that it was an issue if you were caught inside - just like being on the lawns when sprinklers go off.
Powerpoints would need to be sealed. Room would need to be slightly recessed (inch maybe). Cabinets would need some sort of seal.
Or it could just do the shower, which is generally already recessed, has no powerpoints/cabinets/towels. In my bathroom, that would leave the toilet (its own beast), floors (easy to do), basins (bit annoying around the taps) and benchtops (easy).
If a shower had a powered, pressure nozzle, it would probably be easy enough to do yourself once a week while in there.
The toilet is the thing to solve though. My kids are old enough to leave streaks but not old enough to reliably clean them without touching everything they shouldn't!
- blacksmith_tb 6y agoThe key is that the volume of the dishwasher is small, and in fact it has heating elements (plus insulation) to raise the water temp, so it can recirculate that hot water (mixed with soap). I can imagine a bathroom with a drain (mine in fact has a concrete floor and a drain, so I can mop the whole floor into it) but there's no way to recirculate (or heat) water sprayed all over it, so the waste of water and energy would be huge.
- prawn 6y agoI think a pressurised spray done frequently enough (every few days) wouldn't need much water and certainly less than I use in a daily shower.
