Cleaning the Bath Board
Before being cleaned, the bath board should
be removed from the bath and the brackets
removed.
All parts of the bath board should be cleaned
periodically using normal household
detergents.
When disinfecting is required, a mild
disinfectant that will not cause damage to
plastics should only be used.
Strong acid, alkaline or cleaning products may
cause damage or discolouration to the
product.
After cleaning or disinfecting, the parts should
be showered down or wiped with a damp
cloth before the bath board is reinstalled.
Autoclave cleaning is not recommended as it
can cause damage to the specialist plastics
used in the bath board’s construction.

as an aid for sitting. Do not stand on
or misuse the bath board. Do not use
