The shower cabin has long been a sought-after piece of bathroom interior. The fact is that it is an alternative product that can be used in a small room. However, you need to figure out how to properly install the shower. Naturally, you first need to choose it. To do this, you should decide on the type of product, its shape, material of manufacture, as well as dimensions.
If you do not know how to install a shower stall, then do not be afraid of this process, as it is quite simple. First, read the detailed instructions that come with the product. Then decide whether the cabin will stand instead of a bath or next to it. You may need to make some changes to the layout of the room. The assembly of the product is not difficult, you just need to make sure that all the parts are present in the kit.
So, before installing a shower cabin, inspect all the elements. You must have metal racks in the kit, from which the frame of the product is constructed, side panels and rear wall (depending on the shape and type of construction), roof, door, andalso a tray through which the used water will drain.
In order to install the cabin, you must first assemble it. To do this, you will need screwdrivers, silicone sealant, flexible corrugated hoses, a shower, a faucet, a drill, a construction gun, and a level.
The first step is to strengthen the pallet. Naturally, before this, all flexible elements are installed that are responsible for the supply and removal of water. The best option is to place the pallet directly above the sewer hole. You may need additional support elements. You need to fix the pallet on high-quality glue or cement mortar. Drain hoses should be at a slight angle.
Next, before installing the shower cabin completely, assemble the frame of the future product. This should be done using the building level, so that subsequently you will not have problems opening or closing the door (especially if it is sliding). After that, you can attach the back and side panels.
For additional fixation, it is possible to process the joints of the glass with the frame with silicone sealant, which is also an insulator. It is necessary to securely fix the panels with the help of self-tapping screws, for which there are special holes in the profile.
Installing a shower cabin with your own hands is very simple if you follow everything according to the instructions. While working, try to twistself-tapping screws without excess pressure, so that neither the glass (plastic) nor the metal profile cracked. Now it remains only to correctly and evenly install the door, seal all joints and wait until the silicone hardens.
The last step is to check the operation of the cabin, lighting, additional functions, faucets and shower. If there are any problems, then they must be fixed. Now you know how to install a shower cabin. Good luck!
