Tub/Shower Seams and Crevices

[Todd Klassy]

There is a seam and crevice that runs the circumference of my Jayco 23RB where the side panels of the shower meets the tub. I'm wondering if I should put a bead of silicon along that seam/crevice. Not sure I want water splashing into the area behind the shower and tub. Thoughts?

I actually just asked a friend of mine that works in the service department at the Jayco factory. I have the same issue. He says not to seal it up. The gap behind the tub surround has to breath or you will have mold buildup behind it. The tub itself has a 2 inch lip that runs up the wall behind the surround. You shouldn't have any problems with shower water getting in there. The same wall material through out your TT is what is behind the surround.

I had that same question after using the shower a couple times this past week. Thanks for the answer!

Yes, thank you!! I appreciate it very much. I'm glad I asked. I almost didn't, fearing it might be a stupid question.

no question is a dumb question! always ask if not sure. everyone has to learn why not learn the easy way rather then the hard way!
