FAQs
What is the maximum gap this seal can cover?
This ECOSPA shower screen seal is designed to cover gaps up to 13mm between your shower screen and the bath or tray.
What thickness of glass does this seal fit?
This particular model is designed for shower screens with a glass thickness of 4mm to 6mm.
How do I clean the shower screen seal?
Clean the seal using a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Will this seal prevent limescale buildup?
The seal has an anti-mould additive, which helps prevent mould growth. Regular cleaning will help minimize limescale buildup.
Can this seal be used on curved shower screens?
This seal is best suited for straight shower screen edges. For curved screens, you may need to look for a more flexible or specifically designed seal.
What is the color of the seal?
The seal is transparent with a subtle blue tint finish.
How long will this seal last?
The seal is manufactured with anti-UV and anti-mould additives to enhance its durability and lifespan under normal bathroom conditions. Lifespan also depends on cleaning and maintenance.
Troubleshooting
Water still leaking after installation
Ensure the glass thickness is within the 4-6mm range and the gap is no more than 13mm. Check that the soft PVC wing is making firm contact with the bath/tray surface. The screen may need to be adjusted or a different seal model may be required if the gap is larger.
Seal is difficult to slide onto the glass
Make sure the glass edge is clean and free of debris. You can slightly dampen the glass edge with water to help it slide more easily. Ensure you are not trying to fit it on glass thicker than 6mm.
The seal appears cloudy or discolored over time
This is uncommon due to the anti-UV coating. Clean the seal with a mild soap and water solution. If discoloration persists and is not from general grime, ensure no harsh chemicals were used during cleaning.
