Everyone wants to make the home more comfortable and warm, and every detail is to try to be perfect, and the bathroom is to reflect the details of the owner’s life taste, among which the choice of bathroom cabinets is especially important.
Especially in winter, the bathroom without heating water will be particularly dry and cold, and the bathroom with heating water will be very humid. Under these two extreme environments, if there is no proper maintenance, the solid wood bathroom cabinet may cause unnecessary injury.
The damp air of winter is coming
In winter, there are more warm water and heating in the bathroom environment, which is easy to cause moisture. The wet moisture is actually small water drops, which are easy to fall to the ground, and will cause secondary moisture to the bathroom cabinet from the ground up.
Therefore, the wall-mounted bathroom cabinet solves the problem of moisture absorption at the bottom of the cabinet and successfully blocks 50% of the moisture penetration in the bathroom cabinet. Not only can avoid the cabinet directly contact with the ground, but also maximize the use of the upper bathroom space.
If the floor type bathroom cabinet is selected, the bathroom cabinet with non-contact floor needs to be selected; And in the wooden cabinet legs are easy to be damp, will unknowingly lead the moisture to the cabinet body, will eventually lead to the deformation of the entire cabinet.
If the bottom of the cabinet uses metal as a leg material to support the cabinet, the problem is cleverly resolved. Special pads are used at the bottom of the cabinet feet of Tigao solid wood bathroom cabinets, which are specially used to solve the problem of moisture upload and put an end to the problem of moisture.
How to deal with dry cracking?
Winter temperature is dry, due to the needs of families to keep warm, geothermal heating and air conditioning, aggravate the dryness of indoor air, wood serious water shortage, will dry and crack.
Wood is a natural material, is made into furniture, and has the characteristics of plants — it expands when wet and shrinks when dry. It still exchanges water with the air in its environment and contracts and expands as relative humidity changes.
When the air is extremely dry, furniture loses moisture and shrinks, and cracks may appear on the surface. On the contrary, when the humidity increases, the furniture will absorb moisture and slightly expand, thus restoring the original shape. In short, cracking is a unique characteristic of solid wood furniture.
Maintenance knowledge of solid wood bathroom cabinets to prevent cracking
1. First, remember to keep away from heat. Especially in northern families, it is best to place solid wood furniture about 1 meters away from the heating source in winter, so as to better avoid the bathroom cabinet baking at a high temperature for a long time, so that the parts occur local dry cracking, warping deformation, etc.
2. The right humidity is important. It is best to take humidification measures indoors. You can put a basin of water, or increase the indoor humidity of green plants, such as green plants such as more volatile water.
If there is a humidity meter, then 40-60% is best for wood, and people are said to be comfortable with this level. But be careful not to excessive direct humidification. This will cause the wood to swell and mold.
3. Avoid direct sunlight. The place where the sunlight can direct will be relatively dry, if the sunlight direct solid wood bathroom cabinet whole or part of the long time exposure, easy to cause the structure is weak or even unable to use. Therefore, it is recommended to place the bathroom cabinet in a place that is out of direct sunlight.
4. If the bathroom floor is uneven, when placing the bathroom cabinet, it is necessary to pad the bottom of the bathroom cabinet legs with non-slip pads.
In this way, it can keep it stable, avoid the deformation of the door panel caused by long-term skew, and put the furniture firmly, but also safer.
