Silicone the shower cubicle

Do I need to use silicone to seal the shower enclosure?

In order to best seal the shower cubicle, it is advisable to spread a small bead of silicone on the outside of the shower cubicle, between the profiles and the tiles or the shower tray.

This guarantees perfect watertightness, even in the case of wall coverings with an irregular surface or particularly accentuated joints. What type of silicone should I use?

The use of a transparent anti-mould silicone is recommended.

The silicone must be positioned in the external corner between the profile and the tile, using the special nozzle; subsequently it must be spread using a wet tool. We remind you that for silicone to adhere well, the surfaces must be completely dry and that the shower must not be used within 24 hours of installation.

Do I need to seal the shower enclosure inside as well? Shower enclosures must always and only be siliconed on the outside. If silicone is applied only on the inside, any water that eventually infiltrates between the profiles can leak outside, while sealing both the internal and external sides could create stagnation of water inside the profiles themselves.ommodo consequat.
