Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your shower cabin.
- Daily Cleaning: After each use, rinse the glass panels and profiles with clean water to remove soap residue. Use a squeegee or soft cloth to wipe down the glass to prevent water spots and limescale buildup.
- Weekly Cleaning: For a more thorough clean, use a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner specifically designed for glass and chrome surfaces. Apply with a soft sponge or cloth and rinse thoroughly.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or strong chemical agents (e.g., bleach, ammonia-based cleaners) as these can damage the glass, aluminum profiles, and other components.
- Drainage: Periodically check the drainage system for any blockages and clear them to ensure efficient water flow.
