The bathroom is one of the most important rooms for organizing life and comfort. It helps to relax after a hard day at work and cheer up before work. This makes such a process as installing a bathtub very important and responsible. How the further arrangement of this room is planned largely depends on this.
First you need to decide on the installation object itself. The fact is that bathtubs differ from each other not only in size, but also in color, shape, material of manufacture. It can also be noted that all the difficulties and technological solutions in such a process as installing a steel bath are no different from those when installing a product from another material. Color also cannot play a significant role in installation, but the size and shape can cause certain difficulties.
That is why the bath should be chosen, first of all, according to the size of the room where it will stand. At the same time, such parameters as color and material of manufacture, as already mentioned, go by the wayside. Because installing an oversized cast iron bath is as difficult as it is hard.
Having decided on allelements of plumbing, before the installation itself, it is necessary to start preparing the room. Its walls must be fully treated with antifungal impregnation and, if possible, fully tiled. Many choose not to process the piece of wall below, hoping that installing a bathtub will cover it up and thus solve the problem. Such an approach can be called a gross violation of not only the aesthetic appearance, but also the technological process, as well as safety precautions. Since it is in such unprotected places, which are almost never cleaned due to inaccessibility, that mold and fungi form. They release toxins dangerous to humans and can cause serious harm to he alth. Therefore, before the installation of the bath begins, it is necessary to carefully process and prepare the room.
After all plumbing items have been placed, they should be connected to the necessary communications. Usually this is sewerage and plumbing, but in some cases electricity is also required. Such installation requires compliance with all the rules of operation and safety, if possible, it should be entrusted to professionals.
When the installation of the bath is completed, and the rest of the plumbing has been connected, all holes between the walls and appliances should be sealed with a special silicone sealant. Moreover, the sealant must be purchased with antibacterial properties, since in a damp environment, which is often present in such premises, there is a high probability of mold or fungus formation. It is precisely because of this thatit is recommended to "sew up" the bath completely, but it is advised to leave a small hole for ventilation.
Properly designed with reliable materials, the bathroom will bring comfort and coziness to its owners, and create a great mood in the morning.
