About the solution
Because these patients are susceptible to temperature fluctuations, that can result in a spastic reaction, bend the leg in a snap and cause a heavy fall, so it can be dangerous to put a heater in the ground near the water outlets.
The inventor developed a system that heats the bathroom tile through the shower water.
In order to create this system he fixed a 5 cm diameter PVC pipe system, drilled the last hose with small holes and placed the shower head in the hose. Hot water heats the floor before the person takes a shower.

concrete floor cleaning this is great as it will allow for added warmth but also the floor needs to be able to handle the heat.
