Understanding SlipGrip Technology
When selecting a shower base, safety is just as important as aesthetics. The SlipGrip textured floor surface integrated into this acrylic tray is engineered directly into the material rather than applied as a slippery coating. Think of it like the fine, natural traction found on a polished stone pathway; it provides microscopic gripping points under wet conditions without feeling abrasive against bare feet. This clever engineering ensures dependable stability during every shower while maintaining the smooth, high-gloss appearance of the surrounding non-porous acrylic walls.
Installation Guide
Verify that your alcove dimensions match the 32x54-inch footprint and that the subfloor is completely level prior to placement.
Ensure professional installation is utilized to secure the fiberglass-reinforced base properly and prevent any future shifting.
Connect the center drain opening to a standard 2-inch compression fitted drain according to local plumbing codes.
Wipe down the high-gloss acrylic surface regularly with a soft cloth and mild cleaner to preserve its glossy finish.
Care & Maintenance
Routine Cleaning Wipe the high-gloss acrylic surface weekly using a soft sponge and mild liquid dish soap.
Stain Prevention Rinse the shower base thoroughly after each use to prevent soap scum and hard water mineral buildup.
Avoid Abrasives Never use harsh scouring powders, steel wool, or metal scrapers that can dull the glossy finish.
Chemical Safety Keep harsh solvent-based cleaners and paint thinners away from the acrylic material.
Drain Maintenance Clear hair and debris from the 2-inch drain opening regularly to maintain proper water flow.
