The bathroom has always been a place where safety hazards are more likely to occur. When we carefully select various styles and styles, we should pay more attention to the safety hazards of the bathroom. We need to be responsible for the safety of ourselves and our families, and this is what we must pay attention to. In the accumulation of life in the future, these potential safety hazards may accumulate more and more, so we must put an end to them.
The advantages and disadvantages of tiles are related to bathroom safety
Compared with other wall and floor materials, tiles seem to be more suitable for use in the bathroom. However, the wet environment of the bathroom also makes us have to pay more attention to the quality and performance of tile products. When consumers choose, they must pay attention to the anti-skid, strength, water absorption rate, glaze quality of glazed tiles, etc. of the tiles themselves.
1. Special attention should be paid to the anti-skid of bathroom floor tiles. Although the brand will show relevant data to consumers when purchasing, it is more appropriate to make a judgment by stepping on it by yourself. If possible, you can sprinkle some water on it and try again. In addition, the anti-slip of ceramic tiles is mainly formed by the friction of the contact surface, so you can try to buy some floor tiles with patterns and concave-convex feeling. In addition, if you use polished tiles, you must pay attention to asking whether anti-slip agents have been added, and you can also feel whether there is a jerky anti-slip effect after being exposed to water.
2. The water absorption rate of wall tiles affects its sticking firmness. Generally speaking, the lower the water absorption rate, the higher the density of the product and the stronger the anti-pollution ability. The thermal expansion and contraction of ceramic tiles with high water absorption rate will lead to cracks on the surface of the ceramic tile and the peeling off of the overall tile. In the clear Beijing, bathrooms need to pay more attention to this problem. Chen Wei suggested that the simple way to judge is to tap, the sound is crisp and loud, the density is high; the sound is hoarse, the density is low, and the water absorption rate is high.
3. The strength of tiles determines its ability to resist damage. If the tiles are not strong enough, it is easy to cause the overall cracking of the tiles, and then there will be dangers such as product falling off and scratches. However, there is no necessary relationship between the strength and thickness of tiles, strength is essentially determined by texture. Therefore, consumers do not have to buy too thick ones when purchasing.
The hardness of the ceramic body of the sanitary ware determines its load-bearing capacity
When choosing sanitary ware such as toilets and basins, in addition to function and shape, consumers should also pay attention to the firing technology and cleaning technology of the product itself.
1. To avoid “bathroom syndrome” (hypoxia and ischemia caused by high temperature and high humidity). It is suggested that consumers can buy a whole bathroom with ventilation equipment.
2. Pay attention to the shock resistance of the tempered glass in the shower room. The overall shock resistance and impact resistance of tempered glass should pass the impact test when leaving the factory, and after the test, it will be placed for one to two months before being used to process the shower room. This is because tempered glass is most likely to break within one month after production when there is no external impact. Some small manufacturers may not be able to do inspections, but the bursting of tempered glass is not terrible, but be careful not to apply pressure or touch it after the burst, and let professionals or manufacturers solve it.
3. Pay attention to the leakage protection of the product. The places where the bathroom is connected to the power supply include functional toilets, jacuzzi bathtubs, integral shower rooms and other places that need electricity. These places should have leakage protection and overload protection. High-quality products will have such devices to ensure safe use.
4. Check the anti-skid protection of the contact part of the bathtub bottom. Usually, the bottom of the bathtub has anti-slip protection to increase friction and improve safety performance. In addition, when the bathtub is produced, good brands will use non-slip acrylic material.
