6. Maintenance and Care

Regular cleaning and maintenance will preserve the appearance and functionality of your shower kit.

6.1 Glass Panels

• Clean glass panels regularly with a soft cloth or sponge and a non-abrasive glass cleaner.
• For hard water spots, use a solution of white vinegar and water. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the glass surface.

6.2 Metal Finishes (Satin Nickel)

• Wipe metal components with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap.
• Dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners, ammonia-based products, or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the satin nickel finish.

6.3 Shower Base

• Clean the acrylic shower base with a non-abrasive bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth or sponge.
• Rinse thoroughly to remove all cleaning product residue.
• Regularly check the drain for blockages and clean as needed.

7. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your shower kit.

7.1 Door Does Not Slide Smoothly

• Check for Obstructions: Inspect the top and bottom tracks for any debris, soap scum, or foreign objects. Clean the tracks thoroughly.
• Inspect Rollers: Ensure the rollers are clean and free from hair or grime. Verify they are properly seated in the track.
• Lubrication: A silicone-based lubricant can be applied sparingly to the tracks and rollers if friction is present. Do not use oil-based lubricants.

7.2 Water Leaks from Shower Enclosure

• Check Seals: Inspect all rubber seals and sweeps along the bottom and sides of the door and fixed panels. Ensure they are intact and properly positioned. Replace if damaged.
• Silicone Sealant: Examine all silicone sealant lines for cracks, gaps, or deterioration. Reapply silicone sealant as necessary, ensuring the area is clean and dry before application.
• Proper Slope: Ensure the shower base has a slight slope towards the drain to prevent water pooling and overflow.
