After purchasing a satisfactory bathtub, we are full of joy and ready to take a comfortable hot bath, but the installation is another problem. Before and after installation and during the installation process, there are many places that we need to pay attention to. For example, what is the most suitable installation height? What is the installation method? What are the precautions during installation? Let us introduce you to .
Bathtub installation height:
The installation height of the bathtub can be 355-518mm for ordinary bathtubs, 475mm for seated bathtubs (310mm at the sitting position), and 470mm for jacuzzi bathtubs. The length of the bathtub is generally around 1500mm. Therefore, we should pay attention when purchasing a bathtub. It is very important to our home life to choose a bathtub size that suits us. Whether the size is large or small, it will have a very bad impact on our life.
Bathtub placement form:
Generally, there are two types of bathtub placement: independent and embedded. The independent type means that the bathtub is placed directly on the bathroom floor. This method is convenient for construction and maintenance, and is suitable for use when the floor has been decorated. Embedded is to embed all or part of the bathtub into the countertop. Compared with the embedded bathtub, it is easy to enter and exit, and is suitable for the weak.
How to install the bathtub:
The installation method of the bathtub is first to choose a bathtub of appropriate size according to the specifications of the bathroom. I believe everyone will notice this point, choose the appropriate bathtub size according to the size of your bathroom, so in the early stage of installation, you must first compare the size of the bathtub and the space reserved for the bathroom.
The next step is the installation method of the specific bathtub. When installing, according to the actual size of the bathtub, build the skirt with bricks and cement, add tiles on the outside and the upper part of the skirt, and build a platform with bricks and cement at the bottom. The height is preferably just to the bottom of the bathtub.
Then unpack the bathtub and snap it in from the upper part, connect the sewer pipe, and let the bottom of the bathtub skirt touch the skirt. This point must be careful, from the installation to the connection of the sewer pipe, you must pay attention to the fit between the bathtub and the surrounding.
Finally, I would like to give you some advice on the installation method of the bathtub. In order to stabilize the bathtub and prolong the service life of the bathtub, it is recommended to apply glass glue on the place where the bathtub contacts the skirt and the wall, so as to effectively keep the bottom of the bathtub dry and prolong the use life.
Precautions for bathtub installation:
1. Before installation, it is necessary to determine the various circuit diagrams, check the drains and water inlets, and figure out the hot and cold water directions of the pipelines, which will save a lot of trouble during installation.
2. After the bathtub is installed, you can fill the bathtub with water and check whether there is water leakage in the bathtub. After there is no problem, open the drain and check the drainage of the drain.
3. Check whether the level, front and back, and left and right positions of the bathtub are appropriate, and check whether the drainage facilities are appropriate. During the installation process, anti-dirty, anti-collision and anti-clogging measures should be taken for the bathtub and sewage facilities. The sparks from the angle grinder and spot welding machine should not splash on the bathtub, otherwise it will cause damage to the glazed surface and affect the appearance of the bathtub.
4. Pay attention to the protection of the bathtub. In the process of bathtub installation and house decoration, soft materials can be used to cover the surface of the bathtub, do not stand on the bathtub for construction, or place heavy objects on the edge of the bathtub to prevent damage to the bathtub. The bathtub can be used 24 hours after installation.
