Rinker 265 Fiesta Vee Preventing Shower Water on Cabin Floor

K&S2015K&S2015 Member Posts: 18 ✭✭
I was wondering if anyone has or had figured out a way to prevent water from coming out of the bathroom door seam when someone is using the shower.  I have everything caulked in very nicely in the stall area, and so I am pretty certain that this small crack that is the door sill area near the bottom is where the water is coming out from.  Whenever someone uses the shower the cabin floor is all wet and nasty outside of the door.  I want to try to seal that up.  Thanks,

    Does that mean that your shower drain is not keeping up with the water from the shower?  When working properly it should keep up.

    If it's as Stodge mentioned, you should first check the shower box (there is a bilge pump in a box that may need cleaned out).  If it is still not draining right, like mine was, I removed the drain cap in the shower and ran a hose thru it for quite a while cleaning it out.

    on mine, I replaced the old shower pump, come to find out that the old pump though it still worked, for some reason it was running "slow". With the new pump, the floor of the shower is almost like the shower at home. No standing water

    I run white vinegar down the shower drain and let it stay for a while. This helps with soap and hair build up and keeps the drain and sump clean.
