How to properly "protect" your shower glass?

In addition to the quality of the glass itself and improper installation, another very common reason is improper maintenance. Let's take a look at how to properly maintain the tempered glass of the shower cabin to reduce the chance of the glass self-exploding and hurting people.

1. Avoid scratches by sharp objects

Tempered glass is very strong and can even bear the weight of several people, but it has a weakness, that is, it is afraid of being scratched and hit by sharp objects. Since the contact area of ​​the sharp object is very small, the pressure on the glass at the contact point is quite large, so that the glass is slightly cracked by a large external force at this point. For tempered glass, a little cracking means that The stress distribution inside the whole piece of glass is destroyed, resulting in countless spider web cracks in an instant.

2. Focus on protecting the corners of the glass

The middle part of the tempered glass is the strongest, and the four corners and edges are relatively weak. Once there are cracks in these parts, it is easy to smash the whole piece of glass. I don’t know if you have observed that the position of the safety hammer marked on the glass of the bus window is on the corner of the glass. How to save money on decoration?

3. Turn on and off slowly when using

The shower room company reminds you that although the strength of the tempered glass in the shower room is high, the performance is relatively strong in all aspects. However, it should not be treated rudely, such as using a lot of force when switching, and using brute force when it is closed and not smooth.

4. Gradually increase the shower water temperature

The self-explosion tempered glass products are not necessarily fake and shoddy products. The interior of the shower room is a relatively closed space, and the accumulation of high temperature and high pressure to a certain extent will cause pressure on the glass screen. It is recommended that when bathing in a glass shower room, do not suddenly use high-temperature hot water, but gradually increase the water temperature.
