A technician demonstrates how to install a shower column with a water-tight seal on an Ella's Bubbles walk-in tub. This video shows the steps for applying silicone caulk and securing the column base.
The installation process begins with preparing the shower column base. A technician removes the locking piece and all gaskets from the shower column base. Next, a thin bead of silicone caulk is applied where the attachment ring meets the thread, followed by placing a rubber gasket over the caulk and pressing gently.
Another thin bead of caulk is then applied around the rubber gasket, and the silicone is smoothed for complete coverage. The column base is placed into the pre-drilled hole on the walk-in tub. A metal washer is placed onto the bottom of the shower column base, and the locking piece is screwed on.
Each screw is tightened snugly to ensure a secure and watertight seal for the shower column base, but care is taken not to overtighten or over torque. This process ensures the shower column base is set and watertight for lasting performance and durability with your Ella's Bubbles walk-in tub and shower system.
