Product Information
Full details
The Vidalux Coniston 1700 P-Shape Walk-In Shower Bath is an ideal solution for individuals seeking a blend of accessibility and modern bathroom design, particularly those with reduced mobility who require a safer bathing environment. It offers a spacious P-shaped layout with a low-entry door for easy access, though users should be aware that the included handheld shower is intended primarily for seated bathing rather than upright standing showers, which will necessitate an additional wall-mounted system.

FAQs
Can I stand up and shower in this bath?
The included shower head is designed for seated use. To shower while standing, you will need to install an additional wall-mounted shower system.
What are the dimensions of the bath?
The unit is 170cm in length, 85/70cm in width, and 61cm in height.
Is the door locking mechanism difficult to use?
No, it is a robust, gadget-free mechanism designed specifically for simple, reliable operation by users of all ages.
Does this bath include a whirlpool function?
This specific model (WB409) is the standard version. A separate whirlpool variant is available in the Vidalux Coniston range.
How do I maintain the door seal?
Keep the seal clean from soap scum and debris by wiping it with a soft cloth after every use to ensure it maintains a watertight seal.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking around the door seal
Check the door mechanism for any trapped debris or hair; ensure the latch is fully engaged and the rubber seal is free from damage.
Slow drainage
Verify that both 40mm pop-up wastes are fully opened and clear of debris; inspect the drain pipework for potential blockages.
Difficulty operating the door handle
Ensure the bath is perfectly level, as slight shifts in the floor can cause the frame to twist and bind the door mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Coniston walk-in bath is made more efficient through the inclusion of accessible maintenance panels, which allow for easier plumbing connections and future service checks. Ensure your bathroom floor is level before installation to maintain the integrity of the door seal. For ongoing care, clean the acrylic surface with mild, non-abrasive detergents to preserve the finish. Regularly check the door seals for any debris build-up to maintain the watertight integrity of the locking mechanism. Note that as this unit lacks an upright shower head, you must ensure your plumbing layout accounts for an auxiliary wall-mounted mixer if you intend to stand while showering.
