Understanding ClearMax Glass Technology
Keeping shower glass sparkling clean can often feel like a constant chore, similar to how morning dew beads up and rolls off a freshly waxed car hood. The DreamLine Essence-H utilizes ClearMax water repellant and stain resistant glass technology to replicate this exact effect. By sealing the microscopic pores of the certified tempered glass, water droplets, soap residue, and mineral deposits slide right down the surface rather than sticking and drying into stubborn spots. This advanced protective layer significantly reduces your weekly cleaning routine, ensuring your shower door maintains its brilliant, crystal-clear appearance with minimal effort over years of daily use.
Installation Guide
Measure your finished shower opening carefully, ensuring the width falls between 44 and 48 inches before trimming the top and bottom guiderails.
Utilize the 3-inch aluminum wall profiles to compensate for up to 1/4 inch of out-of-plumb or uneven wall conditions during setup.
Handle the certified tempered glass panels with extreme care during positioning to avoid chipping the edges against hard surfaces.
Ensure the SafeClose bumper guides are securely installed within the wall profiles to provide proper operational security.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Rinse the glass panels with clean water after each shower to wash away lingering soap residue.
Squeegee Use Wipe down the glass with a squeegee daily to prevent water spotting and mineral buildup.
Gentle Cleaning Use a soft microfiber cloth along with a mild, non-abrasive liquid cleanser to clean the glass and chrome surfaces.
Avoid Abrasives Never use harsh scouring pads, steel wool, or abrasive chemical cleaners that can scratch the chrome finish or damage the protective glass coating.
Hardware Care Dry the aluminum profiles and towel bars periodically with a soft towel to maintain their polished look.
