With the improvement of people’s living standards, there are higher requirements for the quality of life, which is most vividly reflected in home decoration. As far as bathroom decoration is concerned, whether it is hardware pendants or bathing equipment, we all pursue excellence. So what are the precautions for the purchase of bathroom wash basins and the installation height? The editor will analyze them one by one for everyone.
First, the bathroom washbasin selection:
There are many washbasin materials on the market now, and different materials also have different characteristics.
Tempered glass washbasin: The washbasin made of this material is relatively simple and beautiful, and the good permeability will also make the clear water look very beautiful. But if there are children at home, for safety, it is not recommended to use.
Ceramic washbasin: Ceramic products always have a strong Chinese style and elegant sentiment, which is the style loved by literary and artistic youth. When purchasing, you should mainly pay attention to the size, wall thickness and cracks of the basin. Be careful not to be bumped by hard objects when using it.
Overall washbasin with wall cabinet: This is a more popular and popular one at present, because it has a storage cabinet, which saves the original small space in the bathroom and is also very convenient to use. When purchasing, marble countertops should be the first choice , relatively firm. However, avoid getting the cabinet wet when using it, otherwise the wooden material will crack easily.
In addition, the European-style washbasin is also good, with a sense of grandeur and luxury, but the price is correspondingly more expensive.
Second, the installation height of the bathroom wash basin cabinet:
No matter what kind of washbasin cabinet, the installation height is very important. If it is too high, it will easily cause hand soreness, and if it is too low, it will be bad for the waist. Especially if there are elderly people or children at home, you need to pay more attention to these matter.
Therefore, generally during installation, it is best that the top of the wash basin should be about 80 centimeters from the ground.
This is a more suitable height, but if there are special circumstances at home, you can also consult with professionals according to the specific situation, and start the installation after determining the feasibility.
3. The installation depth of the bathroom wash basin cabinet
This is very important, if the water flow from the faucet is too strong, and your basin is very shallow, then the water will splash on you. Sufficient depth must be left during installation, and the bottom must also have an appropriate radian to give the water a buffer time.
4. Precautions for installation of washbasin:
1. After the washbasin and the water pipe are connected, we usually pay attention to the tightness between them, but we often ignore the disassembly problem that will occur in the future. This problem must be paid attention to, maybe it will be used in the future. So think ahead.
2. Wash basins are divided into counter basins and pedestal basins. No matter what kind of basin, you must pay attention to the fixing of the screws. You must use mildew-proof glass glue, because mold is likely to appear in the later period. Post-cleaning is troublesome and you will regret it.
3. When the washbasin is connected to the water pipe, the faucet is generally used as the center, and two water pipes are used respectively, which are divided into cold water pipes and hot water pipes. When installing, be careful not to reverse the position.
4. There is a small hole on the edge of the washbasin, called the overflow hole, which is mainly to prevent the water in the basin from overflowing, so don’t forget to open the hole when installing, and it must be analyzed according to the specific size of the drawing a bit.
5. If the wall of your home is a porous wall, you must not use metal expansion bolts. You can use 6mm galvanized bolts or galvanized metal expansion bolts.
6. The part where the sink and the wall are in contact should be tightly connected without gaps, so we need to use some glue or caulking agent in the middle.
Some water pipes and faucets use chrome-plated or gold-plated products. Be careful not to damage their surface when installing.
The above are the precautions for the purchase and installation of bathroom wash basins shared by the editor!
