FAQs
What is the Proclick system?
The Proclick system is a patented tongue-and-groove mechanism that allows Showerwall panels to click together seamlessly, creating a watertight and grout-free joint without the need for special joining trims.
Can I install Showerwall panels over existing tiles?
Yes, Showerwall panels can be installed directly over existing tiles, provided the tiles are securely fixed, the surface is flat, and clean. This eliminates the need for tile removal.
Do I need to use grout with Showerwall panels?
No, the Proclick system creates a seamless, grout-free finish. You will only need to use a sanitary sealant at edges and corners for a watertight seal.
What is the difference between Plywood and Exterior-Grade MDF core?
Both core types are suitable for bathroom use. Exterior-Grade MDF is specifically designed to offer enhanced moisture resistance compared to standard MDF, making it a robust choice for shower areas.
How do I clean and maintain the Ivory Marble panels?
Clean the panels with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Wipe dry immediately to maintain the gloss finish and prevent water spots.
What are the visible and total widths of the Proclick panels?
For Proclick panels, there is a total width and a visible width (shown in brackets). The total width includes the part of the panel that interlocks with the next panel, while the visible width is the part you see once installed. For the 2440x1200mm panel, the visible width is 1179mm.
Does this product come with a warranty?
Yes, the Showerwall Ivory Marble panel comes with a 30-year guarantee, providing long-term assurance of its quality and durability.
Troubleshooting
Panels do not click together easily.
Ensure there are no obstructions or debris in the Proclick channel. Check that panels are aligned correctly and apply gentle, even pressure. Do not force the panels.
Visible seam or gap between panels.
Confirm that the Proclick mechanism is fully engaged. Check for any damage to the profile of the panels. Ensure the panels are installed flat against the wall.
Water ingress at edges or corners.
Ensure adequate sanitary sealant has been applied to all edges, corners, and around any openings (e.g., pipework, shower fixtures). Reapply sealant if necessary.
Surface appears dull or smudged.
Clean the surface with a recommended mild cleaner and a soft cloth. Wipe dry immediately afterwards to restore the gloss finish. Avoid abrasive cleaning products.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Preparation: Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and structurally sound. If installing over existing tiles, ensure they are securely fixed.
- Cutting: Measure and cut panels to size using appropriate tools (e.g., a fine-toothed saw or jigsaw). Ensure cuts are clean and precise.
- Adhesive: Apply a high-grab, low-odor sanitary sealant or a recommended adhesive to the back of the panels or the wall surface, following manufacturer guidelines.
- Installation: Position the first panel and press firmly into place. Engage the Proclick system on subsequent panels for a seamless fit. Use a soft mallet to ensure a secure join.

- Sealing: Apply a sanitary sealant to all edges, corners, and around fixtures for a watertight finish.

Care:
- Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive household cleaner.
