The shower cabin has long been a sought-after interior item in the bathroom. 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 a shower. Naturally, you must first select it. To do this, you need to determine the type of product, its shape, material of manufacture, as well as dimensions.
If you do not know
how to install a shower, then do not be afraid of this process, as it is quite simple. First, read the detailed instructions that came with the product. Then decide whether the cabin will stand instead of the bath or next to it. You may have to make certain changes to the floor plan. Assembling the product is not difficult, you just need to make sure that all the parts are in the kit.
So, before you install a shower, inspect all the elements. You must have in the kit metal racks from which the product frame, side panels and rear wall (depending on the shape and type of construction) are built, a roof, a door, as well as a tray through which used water will be drained.
In order to install the cab, you must first assemble it. To do this, you will need screwdrivers, silicone sealant, flexible corrugated hoses, a shower, a mixer, a drill, a construction gun, and also 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 pan directly above the sewer opening. 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 later you do not have problems opening or closing the door (especially if it is sliding). After that, you can fix the back and side panels.
For additional fixation, it is possible to process the joints of the glasses with the frame with silicone sealant, which is also an insulator. Reliably fix the panels with self-tapping screws, for which special holes in the profile are provided.
Installing a shower cabin with your own hands is very simple if you perform everything in accordance with the instructions. During operation, try to tighten the screws without excessive pressure so that neither the glass (plastic) nor the metal profile crack. Now it remains only to correctly and evenly install the door, seal all joints and wait until the silicone hardens.
Lastly, you should check the operation of the cab, lights, additional functions, faucets and shower. If there are any problems, then they must be fixed. Now you know how to install a shower. Good luck
