How Much Space Between Top Of Shower Door And Ceiling
A minimum space of 21 inches must be planned in front of lavatory toilet bidet and tub.
How much space between top of shower door and ceiling. The enclosure we ve ordered is 1 9m. The edge seal along that edge is probably there to hide the condition you are describing. I have about 5 inches from the top of the shower door to the top. The industry standard is 1 16 but i think even that is pushing it.
I wouldn t want less than six inches. Do we need a gap between the top of the door and the ceiling of tub area. The one i like twyford t4 or geo6 is 1 9m. The room is 2 03m from floorboard to ceiling plasterboard.
Having said that my shower has just over a foot between the top of the glass and the ceiling and that seems to allow plenty of convection. Is there a minimum regulatory or recommended distance between the top of a shower enclosure and the ceiling. If so how much if there s little or no gap will moisture cause damage inside the tub area if there s no place for the steam to escape while one showers for example. To know now much distance i need between the top of the shower door and ceiling for the moisture to vent from the shower assembly.
Shower enclosure seem to come in 1 85m 1 9m and 1 95m. The distance between the tray and the ceiling is 1 96m. The less you have the more concentrated the steam at the top and the more damage the steam will cause. We previously used a shower curtain.
I also try to avoid using silicone whenever possible. I never use a plastic seal there unless it is requested by the homeowner. We re installing a sliding bathtub door. A minimum space of 24 inches must be planned in front of a shower entry.
