Congratulations
on installing frameless shower doors. Frameless glass doors give your
bathroom a modern and stylish look and make it feel more spacious.
Who does not like a spacious bathroom? However, installation is not
the end of it. To keep your frameless shower doors looking as good as
new, you need to follow a few maintenance tips. If hard water and
soapy water is left to accumulate it can cause permanent damage to
the glass. Here are some tips to help you along.
Use
a squeegee every day
A
squeegee is a windshield wiper look-alike tool with a handle and a
long flat rubber blade. Using it on the frameless shower doors is the
most effective way of maintaining shower doors. It is a simple task
that only takes minutes. You just need to get everyone in the house
on board and get them excited to take up the new daily cleaning
routine.
Ventilation
After
taking your shower make sure that your bathroom is well ventilated.
You can do this by turning on the fan or opening the bathroom door.
This allows all the moisture to leave the room quickening the drying
process. By ensuring the room is completely dry you do not give
mildew or mold a chance to form on your frameless glass
doors.
Fabric
softener sheet
This
is one of the unorthodox ways to keep your glass doors clean but it
actually works. The reason it works is because fabric softeners were
designed to break up water spots and hence they work efficiently on
glass doors. You just need to take a sheet and use it to wipe down
the door. Cleaning frameless glass doors could not get any
easier.
Deep
cleaning
It
is normal that you do not get that chance to clean your bathroom on a
daily basis. You might be on a tight schedule at work and you simply
short on time. If this happens you just have to spare one day to do a
deep cleaning on your bathroom. If left for too long without
cleaning, shower enclosures can build up grime and this will require
more than a fabric softener sheet to clean up. You need to scrub the
scum using common home cleaning products. Since the products contain
chemicals, it is a good idea to use gloves to protect your
skin.
Frameless shower doors have become very popular
because of their aesthetic appeal. If you have them installed make
sure you keep them clean with the above tips.
