How Much Space Between Top Of Shower Door And Ceiling

I think what s most important is keeping the room warm enough to reduce condensation and increase evaporation to an level that keeps things fairly dry.

How much space between top of shower door and ceiling.

A minimum space of 24 inches must be planned in front of a shower entry. Do we need a gap between the top of the door and the ceiling of tub area. To know now much distance i need between the top of the shower door and ceiling for the moisture to vent from the shower assembly. Is there a minimum regulatory or recommended distance between the top of a shower enclosure and the ceiling.

The industry standard is 1 16 but i think even that is pushing it. The one i like twyford t4 or geo6 is 1 9m. If so how much if there s little or no gap will moisture cause damage inside the tub area if there s no place for the steam to escape while one showers for example. I have about 5 inches from the top of the shower door to the top.

The room is 2 03m from floorboard to ceiling plasterboard. Question is will it be a problem only having a 6cm air gap above the door and side panel. I never use a plastic seal there unless it is requested by the homeowner. Having said that my shower has just over a foot between the top of the glass and the ceiling and that seems to allow plenty of convection.

The enclosure we ve ordered is 1 9m. We previously used a shower curtain. I wouldn t want less than six inches. A minimum space of 21 inches must be planned in front of lavatory toilet bidet and tub.

So get as much space as possible while getting a shower door that you can get. The less you have the more concentrated the steam at the top and the more damage the steam will cause. Shower enclosure seem to come in 1 85m 1 9m and 1 95m. The edge seal along that edge is probably there to hide the condition you are describing.
