How to stop water escaping open shower?

Any suggestions to stop water escaping out an open shower, it’s pooling right out the door if we aren’t careful.

Re: open shower stop water escaping

Hi @poppylee198,

 

The water should be running down a slope towards the drain, not pooling in the area and making its way out the entrance. Is it splashes from the showerhead that are managing to escape the area? If so, you can install a shower head with a narrow spray pattern or one with adjustments. Or, tilt the shower head so it's facing more down than towards the entrance. 

 

Open shower stalls typically have issues with wetting the floor outside them. A bath mat at the entrance is normally necessary to stop water from spreading into the bathroom.  You could look at siliconing a Sandleford 12 x 1000mm Clear Shower Floor Channel across the entrance to stop water migrating out of the area.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
