Understanding the Trim-to-Size Acrylic Wall Panel System
The QWALL-5 backwall system utilizes a trim-to-size design that allows the panels to be cut during installation to fit corner dimensions ranging from 30 inches to 40 inches. Think of it like tailoring a curtain to fit a specific window frame; you take precise measurements of your finished alcove, mark the panels, and trim the edges for a flush, custom-tailored fit against your existing walls. This ensures a watertight connection between panels while accommodating slight variations in wall alignment during your bathroom update.
Installation Guide
Verify that your rough opening matches the 30 in. x 60 in. dimensions and that your plumbing is set up for a right hand drain configuration.
Install the shower base and QWALL-5 backwall panels directly over existing finished surfaces rather than mounting them directly against raw studs.
Trim the wall panels carefully during installation to fit enclosures measuring between 30 in. and 40 in. from the corner as needed.
Clean the scratch and stain resistant acrylic and ABS surfaces regularly using mild soap and warm water to maintain the white finish.
Care & Maintenance
Routine Cleaning Wash the acrylic and ABS surfaces weekly using a soft sponge or cloth with warm water and mild dish soap.
Stain Prevention Rinse the shower base and walls thoroughly after each use to prevent soap scum buildup and hard water spots.
Avoid Abrasives Never use scouring pads, steel wool, or harsh chemical cleaners, as they can dull or scratch the acrylic finish.
Glass Shelf Care Wipe down the two included glass corner shelves with a standard glass cleaner to keep them sparkling.
Hardware Inspection Periodically check the watertight panel connections and caulking to ensure proper moisture defense.
