At present, there are many kinds of waterproof materials for the toilet, and basically the waterproof effect is good. But you should pay attention to the specific construction details.
Waterproof is very important bathroom construction pay attention to several details
1. The toilet floor should be levelled first. If you want to replace the toilet floor tile, after the original floor tile chisel away, be sure to use cement mortar to level the ground first, and then do waterproof treatment. This can avoid the waterproof coating due to uneven thickness and leakage.
2. The seams should be brushed in place. The joints between the toilet wall and the ground, as well as the joints between the upper and lower water pipes and the ground, are the most prone to problems. You in the construction, must urge workers to deal with these corners and corners of the place, all waterproof paint must be smearing “in place”.
3. Wall treatment is also very important. In the general toilet waterproof treatment, the wall should also do about 30 cm high waterproof coating, to prevent water shading the wall. But if the wall of the bathroom is non-load-bearing light body wall, it is necessary to cover the whole wall with waterproof coating. If your home has a two-set shower screen, the two connected walls should also be fully painted. If your home uses a bathtub, the wall adjacent to the bathtub, the height of the waterproof coating is higher than the top of the bathtub.
4, waterproof experiment must be done. After the construction of the toilet, all the water of the toilet is blocked, and a 25cm high “kan” is built at the door, and then 20cm high water is poured into the toilet. After 24 hours, check the surrounding walls and the ground for leakage phenomenon. This 24-hour waterproof experiment is the key to ensure the quality of toilet waterproof engineering, you must do.
5. Keep the water smooth. All the sewer pipes in the toilet, including the floor drain and the sewer pipe of sanitary ware, should be kept unobstructed. Only in this way can we fundamentally avoid the occurrence of the “seven flooded armies” tragedy.
