Bathrooms use electricity, water, and gas frequently, so accidents such as carbon dioxide poisoning, slips and falls, and electric shocks often occur in bathrooms. How to ensure the safety and health of bathrooms and avoid bathroom accidents? Take a look at the safe use of bathroom space prepared by the editor for you!
Do a good job of anti-slip work first
According to a report, the most dangerous thing in the bathroom is stepping out of the bathtub or out of the shower. Slipping and falling injuries account for 9.8% of the total. The first step in a safe bathroom is to do a good job of anti-slip work.
The first measure of bathroom anti-slip: dry and wet separation in space
Dry and wet separation refers to keeping the dry space separated from the area that may be flooded. In the bathroom, it is mainly the separation of the shower area from the toilet and basin area. Water may slip and fall, greatly improving safety.
To achieve dry and wet separation, you can use shower curtains, shower sliding doors/shower screens or buy shower rooms. We orientals are generally suitable to use a shower room above 90*90 cm. The glass of the shower room, including the shower screen/door, can use waterproof materials to strengthen the waterproof function.
The second measure of bathroom anti-slip: use anti-slip building materials on the ground
Whether the floor of the bathroom is tiled or floored, it must not only be waterproof but also non-slip. Plastic floors that are slippery when wet are not suitable for use in bathrooms.
Bathroom floor tiles mainly consider three types: quartz tiles, antique tiles, and emery tiles. Laying an appropriate slope ensures that the accumulated water can be smoothly discharged through the floor drain. In addition, the crushed stones imported from Taiwan and made of crushed natural stones are also good in slip resistance, beautiful and practical. For the floor, you can choose plywood reinforced hardwood floor, which has better moisture-proof and moisture-proof effect.
