Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are taps included with this Balterley bath set?
The product description indicates pre-drilled tap holes, suggesting that taps are not included and need to be purchased separately. Please check the specific product listing for exact inclusions.
What are the exact dimensions of the shower bath?
The shower bath measures 1700mm in length and 700mm in width.
Can I use this bath for showering if I don't install the screen?
While you can shower in the bath without the screen, it is not recommended as it will lead to significant water splashing outside the bath, making the bathroom floor wet and potentially slippery.
What material is the bath made from?
The product information highlights 'high-quality craftsmanship' but does not specify the exact material. Typically, baths of this nature are made from acrylic or reinforced fiberglass.
How do I clean the chrome shower screen?
Clean the chrome shower screen with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for chrome, and then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Is the leg set adjustable?
Yes, the included leg set typically allows for adjustment to ensure the bath is level and stable, even if the floor surface is slightly uneven.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Warranty information is not provided in the product description. It is recommended to check with the retailer or manufacturer for specific warranty details.
Troubleshooting
Bath is not draining properly
Check the chrome waste trap for any blockages. Ensure the waste pipe is not kinked or obstructed. Verify that the waste has been correctly installed and sealed.
Shower screen is leaking
Ensure the shower screen is properly aligned and sealed against the bath edge. Check any seals or gaskets for damage and replace if necessary. Verify the screen is securely fixed.
Taps are difficult to install
Confirm that the taps are compatible with the pre-drilled hole size. Ensure all necessary washers and fittings are present and correctly positioned before tightening.
Bath feels unstable
Re-check the leg set installation and ensure all legs are firmly attached and correctly adjusted to make the bath level and stable. Ensure the bath is on a level subfloor.
