As one of the key areas of decoration, the most important thing is the choice of sanitary ware. However, the sanitary ware market has many brands, different materials and different styles…
How to choose quality-assured and suitable sanitary ware is our compulsory “a home improvement course”!
1. Buying skills: one look, two touches, three listening, four comparisons
Take a look: Consumers can choose to carefully observe the reflection on the surface of sanitary ware products from the side under strong light, and it is better if there are no or few blisters and pits on the surface.
Products with high brightness index use high-quality glaze materials and very good glazing technology, which has good light reflectivity and good visual effect.
Second touch: You can gently rub the surface with your hands, and it feels very smooth and delicate. You can also touch the back and feel the slight friction of “sand” as well.
Three listening: You can tap the ceramic surface with your hands. Generally, the sound of good ceramic materials is relatively clear when tapped.
Four ratios: mainly to investigate the water absorption rate, the lower the water absorption rate, the better. Ceramic products have a certain ability to absorb and penetrate water. If water is absorbed into the ceramic, it will expand to a certain extent, which will easily cause the glaze on the ceramic surface to crack due to expansion.
Especially for toilets, if the water absorption rate is high, it is easy to suck the dirt and odor in the water into the ceramics, and it will produce odors that cannot be removed for a long time.
2. Purchase points: the whole, accessories, glaze
One is the overall shape: a good sanitary ware should not only be beautiful in appearance, but also conform to ergonomic functions and be comfortable to use. The manufacturer’s mold, equipment and design capabilities are the deciding factors. High-level manufacturers generally use imported molds.
Second, look at sanitary ware accessories: the traditional copper water fittings and floating ball irrigation have been eliminated. At present, the good sanitary ware water fittings are all made of imported pvc materials and vacuum irrigation technology, and the anti-corrosion, rust-proof and leak-proof performance have been greatly improved.
The third is to look at the glaze of the sanitary ware: the brand of the glaze, the thickness of the glaze layer and the firing process of the sanitary ware all directly determine the effect of the glazed surface of the sanitary ware.
Using imported glaze, the surface of the sanitary ware with thick glaze layer is smooth and delicate, the texture is plump, crystal clear, and looks very comfortable. Moreover, this sanitary ware has strong self-cleaning ability and low water permeability.
The sewer pipe and the inner wall of the water tank of medium and high-end sanitary ware are also glazed, which is very important to prevent the toilet from hanging dirty. Whether the sewer pipe is glazed is also an important symbol for judging the grade of sanitary ware.
Toilets, shower columns, basin faucets, bathroom cabinets, hardware… These sanitary wares are necessary for bathrooms. If you buy a single piece, it is difficult to keep the decoration style uniform, and the price will not actually save much.
The brand bathroom package collects the necessary sanitary ware in the bathroom at one time, which not only ensures the quality, facilitates the after-sales service, but also has a large price advantage, saving a lot of decoration budget.
