Protect the shower walls from moisture damage with Duramax’s moisture-resistant paneling

23 December, 2022

Damp damage is a common problem inside bathrooms or shower spaces. The interior is usually wet but sometimes there are plumbing issues, leaking pipes, an issue behind the bezel, poor floor sealing and other issues. Condensation is one of the most important causes of humidity and dampness. The warm air condenses and settles in form of droplets on the cold surface of the shower spaces and bathrooms. It is important to have proper ventilation inside the bathrooms. But do you think it is enough? We recommend covering the walls and ceiling of the shower space with PVC moisture resistant paneling

Simple and inexpensive installation

It is quite simple to install shower wall panels as the installation can be completed on the same day within 7 to 8 hours. The panels are exactly cut to shape before the installation. They do not require backers and no other extra materials or additional labor force to complete the installation. The vinyl boards are fixed to the studs directly with fasteners and screws. The panels have interlocking grooves and tongues to make the installation easier. The tongues and grooves keep moisture and humidity from creeping into the panels. We suggest contractors to use clear or off-white silicone between the panels and around the trims. This is ideal for projects where heavy humidity prevails. Do you want to hang objects on the panels? It would help if you treated these boards the same way as the drywall. Make the attachment secure by using wall studs on the attachment points. Use fasteners that can carry the load. 

Panel measurements

The vinyl shower wall panels are ½ inch thick, the thickness is 16-inches and the length can be customized. Each Duramax panel weighs 8 lbs so they are lightweight. The panels support attic load insulation. Duramax panels are available in white but are not e dirty or tinted with exposure post-installation. We manufacture grey color boards only upon receiving bulk orders. 

Easy on maintenance

The shower walls can get blurry due to water spills on a regular basis. Covering the walls and ceiling with PVC sheets can save you from daily cleaning and maintenance. The PVC boards have a smooth surface and do not attract dirt or impurities. The easiest maintenance plan is to wipe the surface of the boards with a damp cloth and a mild cleaning agent. Do not use agents like acids, abrasives, bleaches, or other harsh agents. Wash the panels anytime because there is no fearing about moisture absorption. 

Certified wall and ceiling panels

Duramax PVC panels manufacture vinyl boards for residential and commercial use. Our panels are installed in grow rooms, car washes, commercial kitchens, laundries, fisheries, shipping containers, breweries, commercial spaces, hospitals, shower walls, riding stables and more. We are designing panels for more than 40 years. The vinyl sheets are ASTM-certified, CFIA-certified, and FDA-compliant. The panels are resistant to impacts and abuses. They can resistant to chemicals, controls odor and does not stain heavily. The sheets have a 1-hour Class A fire-resistivity that prevents sudden accidents. The moisture-resistant paneling is lightweight so they can be transported without any extra costs. 

PVC panels coated with antibacterial material

These vinyl boards are completely moisture-resistant. This coating prevents moisture from invading the walls and ceiling. The walls inside are protected from moisture and dampness. Do not try drywall, plywood, tiles or FRP Panels as they are not water-resistant and not suitable for moist environments. PVC sheets are also coated with an antibacterial covering that prevents mold growth and mildew on the surface. The panels have no porosity and can be recycled 4 times more than FRP sheets. They are environment-friendly so recycling them produces little waste. The vinyl panels do not release toxic substances so they are safe for pets and kids. 

The cost factor – PVC panels versus FRP boards

 The cost of the FRP panel is only $70 but the cost of installation is the same as the cost of the raw panels. So, the total money you spend is $141.50. But PVC panels cost $83.58 and the installation cost is only $5 so the total you spend is $88.58 which is lower than the total FRP cost. Install shower wall panels inside your bath space; you do not have to replace them anytime soon. Duramax is offering a $25,000 money-back guarantee to ensure that. The panels are extremely long-lasting. They have a usual shelf-life of 45 to 50 years but they can last upto 100 years. The vinyl panels can last for a lifetime without any high maintenance costs. 

Why not to choose FRP boards?

The advent of PVC panels is one of the dominant reasons why FRP panels have taken a backseat. FRP sheets lasts only a few years because they peel off, delaminate and crack easily. There are various other disadvantages of FRP boards so they have become obsolete. So, there is no point in fixing old FRP sheets once more. Embrace a modern solution, choose PVC boards. Say goodbye to moisture infiltration, delamination, cracking and peeling off.
