There can be no moisture-free shower room, so you need extra safety for the walls and ceiling. You can keep the humidity levels low by allowing proper ventilation, repairing leaks if found, and having a proper plumbing system. There are various types of walls and ceiling panels available in the market. Not all have the power to keep your walls and ceiling safe from moisture. Drywall and FRP panels both are not resistant to humidity. Do not simply paint the walls or install tiles because even they can come off easily. This is why we recommend installing customized vinyl shower wall panels.

The result of condensation inside garages

There can be heavy condensation inside car garages because the cold air meets the hot air. This can lead to heavy damage to the interior. Owners who installed drywall or FRP sheets are now planning to remove the chipped wall covering and replace it with a new one. Moisture accumulation is bad for the shower room because it can cause heavy damage to the interior and take a toll on your health. 

How PVC panels help

PVC panels are a savior because they can keep moisture and humidity away from the walls and ceiling. The panels are completely waterproof, so the inner walls and ceiling, including the panels remain dry. This also keeps mold and mildew away from the surface of the panels. Also, the vinyl boards are covered with an antibacterial covering. To keep moisture under control, you can have dehumidifiers, sufficient ventilation, and properly functioning cooling and heating vents. We also advise you to take cooler showers to prevent more condensation from forming. 

Certified PVC panels in the USA

Duramax PVC Panels is renowned in the USA for manufacturing PVC sheets. Our products are used for residential and commercial purposes. Our PVC panels are installed in grow rooms, car washes, commercial kitchens, laundries, fisheries, shipping containers, breweries, commercial spaces, hospitals, shower walls, riding stables and more. They are ASTM-certified, CFIA-certified, and FDA-compliant. The shower wall panels are ½ inch thick, 16 inches wide and available in different lengths. Each panel weighs 8 lbs and can support attic load insulation. The vinyl sheets are available in white color that does not get dirty or yellowish with time. 

Easy maintenance

PVC shower wall panels have a polished and smooth surface that does not attract bacteria and impurities. The PVC panels do not require daily cleaning and heavy maintenance. We suggest wiping them with a damp cloth and a mild cleanser. Do not use acids, abrasives, bleaches, or other harsh agents. There is nothing to worry about washing as the vinyl boards remain untouched by moisture.

Interlocking panels makes installation simpler and controls moisture

Installing PVC panels does not require any prior planning.  Shower wall panel installation is handled by one person and can be completed within 7 to 8 hours. The process will not require one full day so you do not have to feel worried about not being able to use the shower room the next day in the morning. The plastic wall panels are exactly cut to shape before the installation. There are no backers beneath the panels, so there are no chances of moisture leaking into the walls and ceiling. The PVC panels are attached to the studs with fasteners and invisible screws. The vinyl panels have interlocking grooves and tongues to make the installation quicker. These tongues and grooves help keep away moisture and humidity. Our trained contractors use transparent or off-white silicone between the panels for moisture lock. You can use wall studs on the wall attachments if you want to hang objects on the panel surface. The fasteners should be able to carry the load.

Boards that last more than a century

The vinyl shower wall panels have more than 100 years of shelf life, whereas FRP boards can last for a maximum of 20 to 25 years. FRP panels have taken a backseat due to the various disadvantages so they are almost obsolete. No one would like to install vinyl panels that would not last long but involve pricey installation. PVC panels are a lifetime investment.  PVC wall boards are non-porous, can endure high impacts and can control odor. They are light in weight which facilitates easier and less expensive transportation. The PVC shower wall panels can be recycled many more times compared to FRP sheets. They are environment-friendly so recycling them produces little or no waste. PVC panels do not release toxins so they are safe for human health.
