Aqualux Aqua 6 Bath Splash Guard 300mm Glass Screen With Rail - 1160078

Installation of above Aqua 6 splash guard with rail

I am very impressed with the look and feel of this product. I initially hesitated over whether to purchase a straight rail or this on account of being able to use the full bath length and not getting any leaking past the curtain when showering. I am pleased to find that this is perfectly satisfactory. It is installed over a 750mm bath width. The glass and fittings are excellent quality and look superb. The rail is very good quality but does have internal plastic threaded joints for joining them together - not the most robust. I had to cut down the towel rail by 6mm in order to fit onto my wall. This was not difficult. Installation does require reading the instructions fully and pretty carefully before setting off. I drilled one wrong hole for the vertical rail before realising there were 3 fixing holes (not six) and almost cut the rubber seal length incorrectly before realising it was needed on both sides of the glass. May seem daft, but easy to do! As they say - before sing your hands - THINK. The glass sits directly on the bath and is sealed with sealant only on the outside. I used silicon jelly (for installing soil pipe joints) to install the glass. I also used white and translucent mapei sealant with a sealant smoothing tool. The whole structure is very sturdy. I used maytex curtain hooks which glide beautifully on the rail (after being sprayed with a can of PTFE spray). The curtain sits well behind the edge of the glass when pulled round for showering. I do like having a towel or my wash bag hooked on the hand rail for convenience. Overall, it is a good looking serviceable piece of apparatus from which I have not seen a single drop of water leaking. Good value. Thank you.

Excellent product at a bargain price

After searching for slim splash guards and shower curtain rails for my newly renovated bathroom, I first came across the Aqua 6 splash guard advertised on John Lewis website priced at £149. Their stated lead delivery time however was up to 180 days! After contacting John Lewis customer services, they thought that this was an error but advised me to contact the manufacturer Aqualux. Aqualux couldn't understand the lead time as they had plenty of these items in stock but gave me a list of alternative suppliers including QS. After searching QS Supplies website, I was pleasantly surprised to see this splash guard priced at £78.98 including free delivery. Their prices were so good that I also ordered a new pair of bath taps. Delivery was 2 -3 days as stated and overall I am delighted with my purchases. The Aqua 6 Splash Guard is high quality, easy to fit, looks great and compliments my new bathroom perfectly. I highly recommend this company.

Perfect

I needed a small screen to protect a cupboard which stands close to the bath, in which we have a shower.. This is the perfect size for the job, and the price is great in comparison to all others that I found. I attached the towel rail on the inside of the screen, as the cupboard is too close to use it on the outside as illustrated. I really like this feature as it provides both support for the screen and a handy place to hang a flannel and hook style shower gel bottle. It also meant that I didn't need to use the curved curtain rail provided and could continue to use my straight one. Delivery was quick and it was well packaged. Very happy.

Love it!

Like a lot of people I have a very small bathroom and thought I would have to content myself with a shower curtain rather than a screen but then I came across this glass screen with built in shower rail. It suits my bathroom perfectly, looks great and gives me the best of both worlds. It was delivered promptly and came well packaged in perfect condition. My plumber had never fitted one of these before and was so impressed he asked me for the details so he could recommend it to his other customers. Add to that it is so much cheaper from QS than any other site I found so what are you waiting for?!

Happy customer

This is the second time I've used QS supplies and bought the same screen the original one was in our maisonette and it looked brilliant.. Bought a new house and replaced the screen with Aqua 6 looks brilliant.. Both times I ordered I got my delivery in a couple of days no hassle does what it supposed to and looks great. Fitted it myself both times very easy to do as long as you follow the instructions. Don't need silicon spray .. Fairy liquid works just fine Well worth the money. The same one can be picked for upwards of £109.00 ( I checked )

Exceeds expectations

Having a bathroom ripped out and completely remodelled is a daunting experience and took a lot of saving so I wanted to get it right with all the fittings. I hate full bath screens as we have hard water and it would get all gunky so I wanted a splash guard with a full curtain and this seemed to fit the bill. I didn't know until it was fitted that it had a safety rail! In fact I didn't realise it was a safety rail until I used the shower for the first time. It was fitted by an expert and the photo shows it in my new bathroom. Lovely.

We found this item offered by QS Supplies at a far lower price than other 'leading' suppliers of such items, and it was delivered within 4 wording days of being ordered - one other well known supplier was quoting 18 weeks! We are totally delighted with this product. It is of high quality manufacture and totally suits our bathroom. The QS Supplies staff were very helpful and the delivery of the product was easily trackable via Yodel. We are 100% satisfied with this product and the cost and delivery of it.

Aqua 6 Splash Guard 300mm With Rail FBS0180AQU

I haven't installed it as yet, but it looks sturdy and attractive. Q.S. Supplies staff were very helpful when I rang to ask if it could be fitted the opposite way around from the way it's shown in the photo, as my shower and bath faces to the left of my bathroom sink. I haven't installed it as I must first remove a horrible mouldy old bath & shower screen, and a friend will be coming up to help me with this in October. I'm really looking forward to installing the splash guard & shower rail.

Good quality -easy to fit

Good size 30cm splash screen (others are only 20cm) and has the shower curtain rail included which makes it more rigid and economic to buy rather than separately purchasing a splash screen and rail. All in all nice quality and delivery prompt. I've used qs before and have found them cheaper and more reliable than most. (We do buy a lot of this type of 'stuff' as hubby is a plumber).Although this was for us.

5* Review

Really pleased with this splash guard with rail, As one end of our bath is against the eves conventional shower rails would not fit, but with this product, I could cut this rail to size, both the long and short section to make in fit perfectly. The splash guard in a bonus, as with just a shower curtain water tends to run behind the curtain soaking the bath side and wall.
