Door leaks on walk in baths.
One of the most frequently asked questions via our website is regarding the possibility of leaks from the walk in baths door built into the side or end of the structure. Many potential customers are concerned about the implications of a leak and the damage and inconvenience it would cause.
Many walk in bath producers now use inward opening doors to reduce space required to fit and the reduce the risk of leaks. An inward opening walk in bath door normally has a strong rubber seal around the outside and a lever mechanism that locks the door shut. As the bath fills the pressure and weight of the water on the door actually increases and improves tightness of the seal and further reduces the change of a leak.
As a result leaks from walk in baths doors are very rare and should not be of concern.
Many leading walk in bath producers now offer long guarantees on the their doors seals due to the confidence in the product.
