Hudson Reed Wetroom Screen - 700mm - Polished Chrome

The 'Shower Shield' is a special coating applied to one side of the glass. It makes the surface hydrophobic, causing water and soap residue to bead up and roll off more easily, which significantly simplifies cleaning and maintenance.

This screen is designed for a wetroom setup, which typically means it is installed directly onto a waterproofed shower floor with a built-in drain. A traditional shower tray is usually not required for a wetroom.

The specific fixings for the wall and floor profiles are not included as they depend on the type of wall (e.g., tile, plasterboard) and floor material. You will need to purchase appropriate screws and wall plugs suitable for your bathroom construction.

While DIY installation is possible for those with experience in bathroom fitting, professional installation is often recommended to ensure a secure, watertight, and perfectly aligned finish, especially for frameless designs in wetroom environments.

The lifetime guarantee typically covers manufacturing defects and the structural integrity of the product under normal use. It's advisable to check the specific terms and conditions provided by Hudson Reed for details on coverage and limitations.

The screen itself is 700mm wide. The effective showering space opening will depend on the installation, including the position of support arms and any adjacent walls or panels.

Yes, it can be installed on a tiled floor, provided the tiles and the substrate beneath are properly waterproofed and suitable for drilling and fixing. Ensure you use appropriate drill bits for tiles and suitable anchors.

Check that all support arms, feet, and wall fixings are tightened securely. Ensure the screen is correctly seated in its profiles. Verify that the floor and wall are solid and suitable for fixing.

Confirm that the wetroom floor has adequate fall towards the drain. Ensure the screen is positioned correctly and that there are no gaps where water can escape. Check if the screen height is sufficient for the water pressure.

Ensure the glass was cleaned thoroughly before the coating was applied (if new). If the coating is old or damaged, it may need reapplication or the glass may need replacement. Use only mild cleaning agents as harsh chemicals can degrade the coating over time.

Clean the chrome with a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Ensure the area is dried thoroughly after cleaning to prevent water spots from forming and potentially causing discoloration over time.
