As we all know, the main function of the shower room, as one of the biggest bathrooms, is dry and wet separation. And as a waterproof shower room is the seal.
The following Xiaobian take you into the world of the shower room, to explain how to buy a safe and comfortable performance of the shower room.
1. The material determines the safety of the shower room
Shower rooms are usually made of glass or plexiglass. Plexiglass due to aging resistance, strength, wear resistance and other aspects of poor performance, the use of it to make the shower room less and less.
Ordinary glass is not safe because of its poor rigidity and fragility. Therefore, shower rooms produced by responsible manufacturers are made of tempered explosion-proof glass with excellent strength, rigidity and other properties.
2. Hinge shower rooms are more popular
According to the door switch, the shower room is divided into slide and hinge. In the early days of the shower, there were rails at the base and top of the shower, in which the door slid back and forth to open and close.
Because the sliding rail is easy to accumulate scale or fall into hard objects is not good to clean, will make the door switch is not smooth and lead to damage.
And the slide itself has short service life, push and pull when the noise is larger and other shortcomings, so now the higher grade shower room has been generally upgraded to hinge type.
Hinge shower room generally adopts no frame design, the appearance is simple and smooth, is widely welcomed.
The weight of the glass door of the hinge shower room is completely carried by the hinge. Because the glass door is very heavy, the quality of the hinge is very high, and the corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance and load-bearing capacity are required.
On the market, there are two different materials of the hinge: copper plating hinge and stainless steel die casting hinge, stainless steel die casting hinge from the appearance, strength, corrosion resistance and other aspects are slightly higher, so the more well-known brands often choose stainless steel die casting hinge, to ensure the safety of the shower room, extend the service life.
3. The shower room has three main appearance styles: arc, right Angle and one shape
Circular arc, right Angle shower room to be installed in the vertical corner, in the bathroom of the corner of the division of the bath area, more suitable for a slightly larger area, roughly square bathroom use.
A zigzagging shower room is composed of glass doors and glass screens connected by metal hinges in a straight line, and the two ends are respectively fixed on the opposite two walls, separating one end of the toilet and dividing it into a bath area, which is generally suitable for rectangular bathroom or irregular shape toilet use.
4. The important role of sealing strips
The main function of the shower room is to block the splash when bathing, so we should pay attention to whether the selected products are sealed at the connection between the glass and the glass, the glass and the wall. (Without it, it would be hard to block the spray from the shower head, making the shower less useful.)
And high quality shower seals should not have breakpoints at the hinge, and the seals between the glass doors should be magnetic, so that the water retention is better.
