Slip-Resistant Floor: Textured floor surface enhances safety while the glossy acrylic finish resists scratches and stains.
Understanding Neo Round Corner Engineering
When floor space is at a premium, traditional square or rectangular shower footprints can crowd a bathroom layout and restrict movement. The neo round design of this enclosure addresses this challenge by curving the outward-facing corner, much like cutting the sharp corner off a countertop to make it easier to walk past. This geometric shape maintains a comfortable interior standing area while shaving inches off the exterior footprint, allowing the enclosure to nestle neatly into a corner without blocking surrounding fixtures like vanities or toilets.
Installation Guide
Ensure the installation corner is square and plumb before positioning the SlimLine shower base directly to studs.
Verify that your subfloor is level and that the drain opening aligns with a standard 2 inch compression fitted drain.
Utilize the integrated tile flange on the shower base to establish a reliable waterproof barrier against the walls.
Adjust the anodized aluminum wall profiles to accommodate up to 1 inch of out-of-plumb variance per side.
Professional installation is recommended due to the weight and handling requirements of tempered glass panels.
Care & Maintenance
Glass Cleaning: Wipe down the clear glass panels after each use with a squeegee to prevent water spots and soap scum buildup.
Base Maintenance: Clean the glossy acrylic base regularly using a soft cloth or sponge with mild soap and warm water.
Avoid Abrasives: Never use scouring pads, steel wool, or harsh chemical cleaners that can scratch the acrylic finish or glass.
Hardware Care: Dry the chrome door hardware periodically with a soft towel to maintain its polished metallic luster.
Track Maintenance: Keep the bottom sliding tracks clear of hair and debris to ensure smooth dual door operation.
