The wash basin is not well installed, there is a bigger problem besides splashing water

Today I want to talk to you about the precautions for the installation of the sink, and see how to install the sink so that it can be used comfortably?

What should I pay attention to when installing the washbasin

1. Depth is proportional to strength: water splashing on the body is probably the point that people feel most uncomfortable. Everyone knows that the stronger the water power, the easier it is to splash out. This requires a deep enough basin to hold the water sprayed from the faucet. Therefore, the depth of the wash basin should be proportional to the strength of the water flow of the faucet installed on it, that is, the deep pool can be installed with a strong water faucet. Installing a faucet with large currents in a shallow basin is a dead choice. In addition, the bottom of the water basin must have enough curvature and not be too flat.

2. The installation height should be reasonable: Whether it is a free-standing or a bench-top wash basin, the height of the pool or countertop is usually 0.8 meters above the ground, because a too short pool will cause low back pain. However, this should also be considered in conjunction with the height of the user, so that the user experience is good.

3. The edge of the pool should be slightly higher than the countertop: the edge of the wash basin should be slightly higher than the countertop, but the place where it meets the countertop must be smooth, in order to wipe the water splashed on the countertop back to the pool It is not obstructed when going inside, which is more convenient for us to clean the countertop. The table itself must be made of materials with a smooth surface, and the edges and corners must be smooth, so as to reduce the probability of accidents caused by bumps. The smoothness of the wash basin itself is also very important. The high smoothness of the pool surface makes it difficult for the sundries in the water to adhere to the surface, which relatively reduces the number of scrubbing.

4. Choose the type according to the space: wash basins are roughly divided into two types: free-standing and desktop. The free-standing model has beautiful appearance, small floor space, and easy maintenance, suitable for toilets with small space. The desktop washbasin must occupy at least the space of a small desk. Toilet utensils can be placed on its countertop, and sundries can be placed in the cabinet below.

The installation of above counter basins in bathroom decoration is relatively simple. After opening holes on the countertop according to the drawings, place the basin on the countertop. You can use glass glue or the like to fill in the gaps to prevent water stains and dust from entering. However, if the bathroom is decorated with an over-counter basin, it is good-looking or good-looking, but when using it, if you accidentally increase the amount of water, it is easy to get out of the basin. At the same time, the installation of the under-counter basin is more complicated, and it is necessary to make holes on the countertop according to the basin type. Then fix the basin under the countertop with glue, or install a bracket under the countertop to support the basin. The opening on the countertop should match the size of the basin, and the edge of the opening on the countertop should be smooth and beautiful.

Of course, if the bathroom is decorated with an above counter basin, there are many shapes that can be done, and it is easy to repair if there is a problem later, but the disadvantage is that some corners and corners are difficult to clean. Over time, bacteria and the like tend to grow. In addition, during use, the water on the countertop will penetrate into the glue, the glue will be opened after a long time, or the glue will change color, and the sink will become loose.

Let’s take a look at the under-counter basin. If the bathroom is decorated with an under-counter basin, it is very convenient to use, because the edge of the basin is lower than the countertop, and the water on the countertop is easy to collect Inside the water basin. Very easy to clean, inlaid with the countertop, the cabinet has a good overall effect and is more beautiful. The bad thing is that the load-bearing capacity is worse than that of the above counter basin. If the workers are not skilled enough, problems are prone to occur.

When decorating the washbasin in the bathroom, if the width of the washbasin is less than 70cm, it is not recommended to choose the above counter basin, because there are few types of options at this time and the installation effect is poor, so it should be based on the water drain of the bathroom. Pipe to make a reasonable selection of basins.

So the last editor suggested that for ordinary families, an under-counter basin would be more suitable; if you have a certain pursuit of a beautiful living environment, you can also consider an above-counter basin. After all, there are more patterns and styles of the above counter basin , Can meet different visual requirements.
