The bathroom is a must in any apartment. Naturally, it should not only provide an opportunity to wash, but also help to relax the body. If you want to make this room original and unusual - attach the faucets to the side of the bath. Today, such plumbing is not exclusive and is used more and more often.
One feature should be noted: the faucets on the side of the bath are mortise, since they cannot be inserted onto its surface or into the wall. As for the appearance, it is also different. It is impossible not to say about the functionality of such products. For example, an additional effect can be a stream of water in the form of a waterfall, LED lighting (with different shades). Another advantage of the mortise design is increased reliability, especially if the water pressure in the pipes is strong enough. In addition, such a mixer is very convenient to use, as it is always at arm's length.
It should be noted that suchthe design is very beautiful and makes the room refined, unique. Installing mixer taps on the side of the bath is quite simple, they do not take up additional space. In addition, the shower hose can also be hidden, and it will not spoil the interior.
The bathtub with mixer on board is a new step in the design of the room. However, the mortise design has a certain flaw - a high degree of wear of the shower hose. However, modern materials for the manufacture of sanitary ware are more durable and resistant to abrasion. And during installation, you should be as careful as possible, isolate the pipe connections well and firmly clamp them with clamps (nuts). The fact is that changing the mortise design is a little more difficult than the wall. Naturally, it should be said about the fact that the cost of such a product is higher than standard models. However, the build quality is considered very high. Naturally, her choice must be approached wisely.
Mounting the faucet on the side of the bath is as simple as possible if both elements are made by the same manufacturer. That is, holes for hoses and taps are already provided in the bowl. If you do not have such an advantage, and you bought the presented mixer separately, then you will have to work a little. Although it is not advisable to make holes in the bath yourself. Doing so may damage or break it.
In principle, the procedure itself is not complicated and does not require specifictools, however, a specialist should install the mixers on the side of the bath. It is he who can guarantee competent installation in compliance with all necessary standards, as well as ensure a tight connection of all elements. If you yourself do the work incorrectly, then, in addition to any damage to the plumbing, you risk not only getting water supply difficulties, but also flooding your neighbors.
