NOTE: Tempered glass cannot be cut.
MAINTENANCE: Two primary materials are used to manufacture your new Aquatic enclosure:
tempered glass and anodized aluminum. To assure a long lasting finish on the enclosure, wipe it down
with a towel after each use. Never use a scouring agent to clean the aluminum.
For occasional, more concentrated cleaning efforts, we find that Lysol Bathroom Cleaner
works extremely well. Be sure that any over sprayfalling on the aluminum frame is rinsed thoroughly and
dried. Many over-the-counter cleaners, if applied to the aluminum and left on, will harm the metal finish
and cause permanent damage, even though their directions indicate safe use on shower doors.
INSTALLATION NOTES: Unpack your unit carefully and inspect for freight damage. Lay out and
identify all parts using the instruction sheets as a reference. Before discarding the carton, check to see that
no small hardware parts have fallen to the bottom of the box. If any parts are damaged or missing, refer
to the descriptions noted in the instructions when contacting your dealer for replacements.
Handle the glass panels carefully and protect the edges. Safety tempered glass is very resistant to
breakage, but the sharp corners of the panels can damage tile and floor surfaces.
Please wear safety glasses whenever drilling or cutting. When drilling holes in the ceramic tile or marble,
use a center punch and hammer to carefully break the surface glaze so the drill can start without skidding.
To install your Aquatic shower door you will need the following: tape measure, level, #2 Phillips
screwdriver, 3/16” wrench, drill, 1/8” and 3/16” drill bits, hacksaw, pencil, and caulking (clear silicone
recommended). Optional tools include a miter box for cutting parts to length, files, center punch, and
masking tape.
INDENTIFICATION GROOVE
NOTE : Each magnetic strip has an indentification groove on the exposed
surface. For proper alignment, the grooves should be opposite
each other (see detail).
Identification Groove
Although safety tempered glass is very resistant to breakage, the glass can still
break if unequal pressure is placed on it during installation. Use caution. In addi-
tion, the sharp corners of the panels can damage tile and floor surfaces, so it is best
to handle the glass panels carefully and protect the edges.
