How does a shower curtain work?
A shower curtain is hung up on a rod in between two walls to keep water in the shower and out of the floor when showering. The most effective shower curtains are a type of plastic.
Why does a shower curtain move towards you during a shower?
The downward movement of the water in the shower creates downward movement in the air inside the shower area. Air flow causes low pressure and so the air pressure from outside the shower area is able to push the curtain inwards.
Why will a shower curtain fly toward the shower when the shower is running and hang straight down when it is off?
When you have a hot shower steam is generated and, because it is warmer than the surrounding air, it rises. As the steam flows upwards, cooler air flows in to the lower level of the shower. If the shower is not fully enclosed, the steam will flow out the top of the shower area and the cooler air will flow in near the base of the shower. If the air cannot easily get around the curtain, it will push it inwards as it flows past. Ways to address this are:fully enclosing the shower to keep the steam inweighting the curtain basehaving significant gaps beside the curtain to let air inhanging the curtain so it is held against the shower base lip by its own weight by positioning the rail well outside (>100mm beyond) the line of the base. (This will mean that if the curtain swings outside the shower base it will drip on the floor, so needs a high lip to hold the curtain in.)This effect is caused by a small reduction in the air pressure of the column of air that is inside the shower curtain. The reduction is caused by the pressure of the water being sprayed out of the shower head having to drop from a higher pressure towards normal atmospheric air pressure. This effect is known as the Venturi Effect.The air does not quite reach normal atmospheric pressure until it gets out of the column of air formed by the shower curtain. Because that column of air is at a lower pressure than the air outside the curtain, the curtain gets pressed inwards by the higher (but normal) air pressure in the rest of the room.This effect happens the same no matter if the water temperature is hot, medium or cold.
How to stop a shower curtain from blowing outside of tub?
In order to stop a shower curtain from blowing out, attach weights to the bottom of the curtain I used to have the same problem and the first solution I tried was to buy a shower curtain that had a series of magnets in the bottom of it and they stuck to the side of the tub. This worked but eventually the magnets all started falling out. The solution I found that really did work was to buy a thicker, more expensive curtain, this one hangs down the side of my tub and is heavy enough that it does not blow up against the side of me when I shower. It may be more expensive, but it works great and I haven't had to replace it at all.

How far from the floor should a shower curtain hang?
Long enough so people cant see your dick Alternatively, it should hang 3-4 inches below the edge of a tub or a couple of inches longer than the step of a walk in shower. If the shower base has a lip to stop the curtain blowing out, the curtain should be set to hang in contact with this by at least 50mm/2 inches. However, its important for the curtain to be clear of the floor of the shower to be able to dry properly. Allow at least a couple of centimetres for a little stretch in the fabric.
