Kitchen
1. The socket on the range hood in the kitchen is best fixed on the top of the wall cabinet with a cassette by the master. In this way, the wires of the range hood are also hidden in the cabinet, which is more elegant and tidy than directly exposed outside.
2. The socket should be reserved enough, for example, it should be placed under the kitchen sink. It is necessary to consider whether to install a water purifier and a small cabinet for the family. If necessary, the location and number of sockets under the sink should be arranged reasonably (even sockets are uneven Require).
3. Do not leave a row of kitchen sockets in one place, which is inconvenient to use. Before installing the cabinets, think about how to arrange the electrical appliances, and leave the sockets next to the electrical appliances, so as to avoid the problem of short electrical circuits and using row plugs.
4. For families who use disinfection cabinets in the kitchen, when deploying the circuit, it is best to arrange the switch socket of the disinfection cabinet in the storage space next to the disinfection cabinet. Do not leave it behind the disinfection cabinet, which is inconvenient to use.
5. In the kitchen and home, if you can use a five-hole socket, don’t buy a five-hole socket. The reason is of course that it is safe and energy-saving (although it will make the installer a little troublesome).
6. For the size of the custom-made floor cabinets and wall cabinets in the kitchen, it is best to ask the cabinet designer to make a sample on the spot, and allocate the size reasonably according to the height of the main cook in the family. For another example, some families have a floor height compared to the bottom, and the kitchen only has 2 If the height of the meter is 6 meters (even less than that), it is not recommended to install the top line on the wall cabinet, and the depth and height of the wall cabinet can also be shortened appropriately, the purpose is to avoid hitting the head. After the final negotiation, the cabinet company can be asked to issue a rendering, which can prevent many disputes in the later stage.
Bathroom articles
1. If there are elderly people at home, the selection of floor tiles should take into account the anti-slip effect (of course, buying good-quality anti-slip slippers and laying anti-slip mats can make up for it).
2. The bathroom can also be equipped with a cooler, which is super convenient to use in summer.
3. When the home decoration budget is tight, please carefully consider making a shower room. You can choose to install a shower curtain, because cheap shower rooms are often difficult to take care of due to poor materials, and the appearance is not good-looking, which will reduce the quality of the bathroom.
4. You can buy the floor drain of the washing machine to replace the ordinary floor drain for the sink of the bathroom basin.
5. It is best to make a water stop at the threshold of the bathroom, so as to effectively prevent the water from seeping out from under the floor tiles to corrode the floor in the future.
6. Please buy good quality bathroom glass glue, which can resist yellowing and prevent mold.
7. If you want to place items or pendants in the bathroom, tell the designer the size in advance, so as not to buy it back and make it useless.
Bedroom
1. The lights should be double-controlled. You can install a footlight. You don’t have to rush to find the switch when you get up at midnight. The light control and human body sensor will automatically turn on the footlight. Very strong.
2. It is also best to put a switch at the head of the bed for the socket where the TV is hung, so that there is no need to go to the TV to turn off the TV, and the living room should also be disposed of in the same way.
3. The bay windows of some families have been smashed and the indoor area has been expanded to a certain extent. Please be sure to do a good job of waterproofing.
4. If the bay window is not smashed and is intended to be used as a storage space, while waterproofing it, the actual use of the bay window must be considered. If you usually come to have a friend to drink tea and sit and read a book, please choose double-layer curtains. And the countertop can also be made of marble and quartz stone, which is easy to take care of (this is also suitable for window sills).
