Yes!

Depending on the size of the area you are attempting to cover – there are a couple of options.

If your shower cubicle is only slightly larger than 1200mm, then it’s recommended to use a flat sheet of acrylic with an ‘H’ shaped jointer rail.  The flat sheets come at 400mm wide, so this option is good to cover up to 1600mm shower cubicles.

If you are attempting to cover a space larger than 1600mm, in some instances customers have opted to join 2 x Showerdome® shower top units side by side, again using the ‘H’ shaped jointer rail.

All Showerdome® shower tops are blown to a height of 150mm at the apex of the dome. Therefore we recommend you have clearance of a minimum of 160mm to successfully install a Showerdome® shower top.

Showerdome Limited have sold over 130,000 units in New Zealand, and we have only ever had to remove 1 unit due to the owner’s extreme claustrophobia.

The Showerdome® shower top is crystal clear, and unless you are staring upwards for the duration of your shower – we are confident you will not even notice it’s there.

No. With a correctly fit Showerdome® shower top, there will be no steam, and no condensation in your bathroom to fog up your mirrors.

Absolutely not. Although there will be some misting on the underside of the Showerdome® shower top (as there will be on the glass wall) there will never be enough to create droplets that could wet your hair.

Simple – there isn’t any! Shower steam (or more accurately – ‘moisture laden air’) is only created when the cold air in your bathroom, meets the warm moist air that your shower creates. It is ONLY when these 2 air masses mix, that steam is created.

When you fit a Showerdome® shower top, you are putting a barrier between these 2 components, and therefore NO shower steam is created.

Learn how it works

There is approximately 2 cubic metres of cold air within your shower cubicle when you first turn the shower on.

As the water warms up, this cold air will condensate, and will seek out the coldest surface. In this instance, the glass or acrylic shower box.

From the outside looking in, it may appear that the shower is steamed up – however the cubicle itself is completely clear and free of steam as there is simply no more cold air to generate any.

No. We strongly advise you to NOT use an extractor fan while showering if you have a Showerdome® shower top installed.

An extractor fan pulls more cold air into the room, and this is what fuels the creation of steam.

Having a Showerdome® shower top is an efficient, and comprehensive solution to eliminating steam in your bathroom, and does not require being used in conjunction with any other means of extraction.

No. We strongly advise you to keep your bathroom windows closed while showering if you have a Showerdome® shower top installed.

An open window allows more cool air into the room, and this is what fuels the creation of steam.

Having a Showerdome® shower top is an efficient, and comprehensive solution to eliminating steam in your bathroom, and does not require being used in conjunction with any other means of extraction.

Showerdome® shower tops are manufactured in Tauranga, New Zealand.

Showerdome® shower top is made of a high grade acrylic called Plexi-glass.

It has a Lifetime Guarantee to remain crystal clear.

A Showerdome® shower top is a one off expense, with no moving parts to ever replace, and requires no electricity to run.

As you don’t have cold air from your bathroom cascading over the sides of your shower – the majority of Showerdome® shower top users report that their shower is warm and cosy, and they are therefore able to reduce the water temperature at the tap.

As well at this, your bathroom maintenance costs will be significantly reduced, as paint & fixtures damage from moisture is not an issue.

No. With a correctly fit Showerdome® shower top, there will be no steam in your bathroom to condensate, and run down your bathroom walls or ceilings.

Every Showerdome® shower top comes with a LIFETIME GUARANTEE to stay crystal clear.

There are 14 shapes and sizes of Showerdome® shower top to fit most square, triangular, round front or rectangular showers.

All Showerdomes are manufactured on blanks that are bigger than required, and are trimmed onsite to fit your shower exactly, by whoever is doing your installation.

Some installations will be more difficult due to the shower design and we strongly recommend that in these instances you use a trained installer. www.showerdome.co.nz/where-to-buy-showerdome/

In order to provide accurate measurements – follow these easy steps:-

• Stand INSIDE the shower cubicle
• Place your tape measure in the middle back corner (where the 2 walls meet)
• Measure from the corner to the inside of the framework on each side
• Ensure you advise the shower shape (square, triangle, curved)

Yes you can. You will need to confident cutting and drilling acrylic and will require some basic tools.

Please go to https://showerdome.co.nz/installation/ to see the list of tools required and watch the video of an installation.

A standard Showerdome® shower top installation takes a trained installer approximately 90 minutes.

Most importantly, read the detailed instruction booklet provided. Double check your measurements before attempting to cut the acrylic.

If the temperature is below 10 degrees Celsius, we suggest you attempt to warm the Showerdome® shower top either by standing it in the warmest room in the house, or next to an oil filled heater for some time prior to cutting.

Once ready to cut, you must ensure that what you are cutting to waste is fully supported while making the cut. If you allow the acrylic you are cutting away to hang down, it will cause feather cracks on the actual dome.

Yes!

There are a couple of options, depending on the specific size you are attempting to cover.

If there is only a small area beyond our standard 1200mm offering, we can join a ‘flat sheet’ of acrylic with an ‘H’ shaped jointer rail.  The flat sheets come at 400mm wide, so can easily accommodate showers up to 1600mm.

If your shower cubicle is larger than this, in some cases, customers have opted to join 2 x Showerdome® shower tops with the H shaped ‘jointer’ rail. This can cover up to 2400mm width / length.

Apart from gathering dust on the top, it is unlikely that your Showerdome® shower top will need much cleaning. You can use a long reach feather duster to flick any dust off.

We recommend using a microfiber cloth with a standard glass cleaner if you feel the Showerdome® shower top needs a more thorough clean. Many of them have anti-static properties (like Pledge), which assist with repelling the dust from settling on the top.

Do NOT use strong cleaners, scrubbing devices or abrasives of any nature.

Every Showerdome® shower top comes with a LIFETIME GUARANTEE to stay crystal clear.

We recommend that after showering, you exit the shower cubicle, and CLOSE the door behind you.   This stops the warm air from your shower cubicle from mixing with the cooler air in the bathroom, and causing misting on your mirror.  While you are drying and dressing etc, this allows the temperature in the shower cubicle to reduce, and become more in line with the temperature in the bathroom itself.

As you are leaving the bathroom / ensuite, we recommend pushing the shower door OPEN at this point to allow air to circulate.  This will ensure that the cubicle dries out, and therefore no mould or mildew will form.
