Common Myths About Shower Screens Sydney


Shower enclosures and shower screens in Sydney are ideal for residential bathrooms. But, these bathroom installations are misunderstood by consumers. 

Almost every modern bathroom design features Shower Screens In Sydney. Be it a classically framed shower screen, or a modern frameless one; shower screens come in various designs and styles. They can be customized or come in ready-to-install packages. 


Despite their versatility, consumers don’t appreciate shower screens as much as they should. For instance, many people still think having glass shower screens is unsafe. However, modern-day glass shower screens are made of tempered or frosted glass. Both of them have amazing tensile strength and don’t break easily. Even if your tempered glass shower screen breaks, they break into small and blunt pieces - not of sharp shards. Another misconception is that shower screens are hard to maintain. 


Is mixing white vinegar with lemon and rubbing the solution on glass panels that difficult? Not! Here are some more silly myths about shower screens:

 

  • Myth - You Have to Sacrifice Either Fashion or Function:


Surely, shower screens in Sydney can’t be both fashionable and functional, right? Wrong! Modern bathrooms feature frameless shower screens that are stunning looking. Plus, frameless shower screens don’t have partitions or sections. A top-to-floor glass shower screen can make regular bathrooms look stunning for decades as these screens are also super-easy to clean. If homeowners need to save more space in their bathrooms, they can opt for folding shower screens. They take up limited space and can even be pushed to the side which makes them ideal for small bathrooms. They’re also easily installable. As long as homeowners oil their hinges, these glass shower screens can beautify bathrooms for decades.  


  • Myth - Shower Glasses are Breakable:


Although some shower glasses are made of thin, clear glass that can break easily, most high-quality shower screens in Sydney feature extremely thick and heavy glass panels. These panels are at least 3/8″ thick which makes them extremely stable. These minimum thickness glass panels are also cheaper. If your shower screens have frames, opting for semi-thick glass panels is a safe decision. For frameless designs, opt for ½” thick glasses. To further guarantee that your shower glasses don’t break easily, opt for laminated or tempered glass panels. These super-thick glasses don’t break easily and are very easy to maintain. 


  • Myth – Glass Shower Screens Explode:


Some baseless rumors about exploding shower screens Sydney have given this product category a bad name. In very rare instances, extreme temperature changes from warmer to cooler can affect some tempered glass. However, regular lowering of temperatures throughout the day doesn’t affect any glass shower screens. Plus, the homeowners who experienced glass shower screen ‘explosions’ probably stuck screws or bolts to the glass panels by mistake. If these hard objects touch the glass panels’ sensitive points, they can shatter. But, overall, the chances of glass shower panels exploding are close to zero. 


  • Myth - It’s Hard to Buy Shower Screens:


There are plenty of experts selling high-quality shower screens in Sydney of all types. They can customize your shower screen or offer ready-made pieces. Homeowners must schedule in-Home consultation sessions with their installers before buying shower screens!
