Shower glass leaks can be very annoying. Not only do they make your bathrooms get wet and dirty but also ruin the aesthetics of your interiors. The sole purpose of installing a shower door is to segrate your wet areas from your dry ones in the bathroom, but with the leakage, this purpose is not fulfilled. You need to install good quality shower door seals and sweeps to stop the leakage at once. If you ignore it, this dripping water will ruin your walls and tile.
To stop any leakage and to take a necessary action, you need to first find out the reason and source of leakage. Here is how you can prevent the leakage step-by-step.
You need to first find the place where water is leaking from. Only then can you take the necessary action. Water leaks more often in frameless glass doors than in the framed ones. Is the frameless shower door leaking from the sides or bottom? Do you find water dripping on the vertical side with hinges? Or do you see that your frameless shower glass door leaks where the door opens? Most shower glass doors leak at the door opening or at the side metal track which is bolted to the glass. This leak could be very marginal, but over a period of time, this leakage could also lead to water stains or mould development.
If you think you can call a plumber to add a temporary seal to the leakage area, then the solution will be temporary and will have you racking your brains over it again soon. If the water is leaking from the bottom of the door, then you need to replace your shower door sweep.
These are attached at the bottom of the glass door and their main function is to retain the following water inside and stopping it from flowing outside. If the water is leaking from the sides, then you may have an issue with your shower door seal. Seals are generally installed on the vertical edge of the door that meets the stationary pane so as to prevent the water from leaking out through the crack. These allow the door to swing but are sealed to prevent leakage. If you find water collecting at the shower door which finds its way out, then probably you have a problem with the drip rail. These are attached at the bottom of the glass door to direct the flowing water towards the drain again.
You may feel that caulking is an easy solution to fix the frameless shower leaks. But, although this may provide you a temporary solution, you will soon find it turning black, peeling, molding and causing leakage again. It is best to change the shower door seal, sweeps or drip rails as required.
For a permanent solution, consider replacement of the part or consider investing in a new enclosure that can prevent the leakage. pFOkUS has high-quality enclosures made with superb engineering skills and good quality products.
