FAQs

What are the benefits of a silica-free shower tray?

Silica-free materials contribute to a healthier environment by reducing the risk of inhaling harmful silica dust, which can be present in cheaper tray alternatives. It also aligns with environmental manufacturing standards.

Can this shower tray be installed directly onto a wooden floor?

Yes, provided the wooden floor is structurally sound, level, and adequately prepared to support the weight and prevent moisture damage. Proper subfloor preparation is crucial.

How do I clean the slate effect surface?

Clean with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners and scouring pads.

What is the advantage of the anti-slip surface?

The integrated anti-slip surface provides enhanced grip, reducing the risk of slips and falls, especially when the tray is wet, thereby increasing safety in the shower.

Is the tray reversible for waste outlet positioning?

The product information does not specify reversibility. Consult the installation manual or contact customer support for details on waste outlet configuration options.

What tools are needed to cut the tray?

A fine-tooth saw or a specialized cutting tool designed for composite materials is recommended. Ensure you wear safety glasses and gloves during cutting.

How does the eco-conscious manufacturing benefit the environment?

The manufacturing process uses 100% renewable energy and an optimized waste program, significantly reducing the product's carbon footprint and environmental impact.

Troubleshooting

Tray is not level

Ensure the subfloor is completely flat and stable. Use appropriate leveling compounds or shims if necessary before fixing the tray in place.

Water pooling around the edges

Verify that the waste trap is correctly installed and not blocked. Check that the tray itself is correctly sloped towards the waste outlet and that the surrounding area is properly sealed.

Difficulty cutting the tray to size

Use a fine-tooth saw or a specialized tile/composite cutting tool. Ensure the cutting area is well-supported to prevent cracking during the cut. Wear appropriate safety gear.

Surface appears dull or scratched

Use only mild, non-abrasive cleaners recommended for composite surfaces. Avoid abrasive cloths or scouring pads. Minor scuffs may be buffed out with a specialized composite cleaner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Aquarius Honiston shower tray is designed for straightforward installation. It can be cut to size using appropriate tools for bespoke fits. Ensure the subfloor is level and stable before installation. Follow standard plumbing practices for waste connections.

Compatibility: This tray is compatible with most standard shower enclosures and plumbing systems. Its flat profile allows for various installation types, including on a solid floor or raised on legs (if compatible accessories are used).
