Maintenance and Care
Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your shower kit.
- Glass Panels: Clean tempered glass panels regularly with a soft cloth and a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads that could scratch the glass or damage the protective coating.
- Hardware: Wipe down matte black hardware with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or polishing agents, as these can damage the finish.
- Shower Base: The anti-slip finish on the shower base can be cleaned with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly to prevent soap scum buildup.
- Seals: Periodically inspect the watertight seals around the glass panels for any signs of wear or damage. Replace if necessary to prevent leaks.
- Rollers and Track: Keep the top rail and rollers free of debris and soap residue to ensure smooth operation. A silicone-based lubricant can be applied sparingly if the door begins to stick.
