When decorating the bathroom, many owners have thought of the installation location of the bathroom cabinet and toilet, but they are likely to ignore the floor drain and do not plan where the floor drain is installed. Therefore, before we decorate the bathroom, we try to determine the location of the floor drain.
Today, let's talk about the installation location of the floor drain in the bathroom, and do it for reference, so that everyone can clean more easily in the future.
Floor drain installation strategy: practical first and beautiful second
1. Do not install in the middle of the bathroom
The floor drain in the bathroom shower room is mainly installed at the lowest part of the drainage, not in the middle position. Because it is easy to step on the floor drain, it will be unsafe if there are elderly people and children. Moreover, it is not easy to get into the water, and it is not good-looking.
2. Don't close to the water strip in the shower room
The shower room is basically a partition made of glass, and the water retaining strip and the ground are generally fixed with glass glue. If the floor drain is too close to the water retaining strip, it is easy to accumulate water, and the humid environment is also easy to breed bacteria, and the surface of the glass glue turns yellow and moldy after a long time, which is not only unsightly but also unhygienic.
3. It should be installed in a spacious place far away from the door
The floor drain in the dry area of the bathroom should not be too close to the bathroom door, but should be placed far away from the door. First, it is not easy to be stepped on, and secondly, the wide area is also easier to clean.
For example, if the location near the sink is large, it can be installed nearby, not necessarily behind the toilet or in a small space between the toilet and the bathtub.
Caution:
Many people may say that it looks good when installed behind the toilet, but all of our decoration principles are practical first, if it is only good to look but not practical, it is not recommended for everyone to do so. After all, cleaning is time-consuming and laborious, and it can be very irritating.
Pay attention to these 3 problems when installing floor drains
1. The long floor drain is not good to clean
In many hotels, we will find that the bathroom is made of long floor drain, made of stainless steel, which looks good and drains quickly. This is because long drain slopes are easier to do and drain faster.
However, there is a big problem with long floor drains, that is, they are more likely to accumulate dirt, especially hair, which will get stuck in the leak hole and cause water accumulation. Basically, you have to clean it once every two or three days, and you have to open the floor drain every time you clean it.
So, if we are usually busy, we can still use the normal one.
2. It can be designed with anti-cockroach floor drain
Now the floor drain also has an anti-cockroach and anti-odor design, and there is a valve that can be closed, which is more needed by the owners of southern cities, and the use experience is also better.
3. Do not install in too narrow a location
The bathroom space of most families is not too large, especially the bathroom of a small apartment, in order to be convenient to use, and in order to make it more convenient for our owners to clean, it must not be installed in too narrow a position.
If you can only accommodate one arm's length, it will take a long time to clean up each time, and it will be difficult to hold on for a long time, and that area will become the easiest place to hide dirt and dirt.
Little Love Tips:
In addition to installing the floor drain in the bathroom, it is also necessary to choose a floor drain with excellent quality and do a good job of anti-odor and mildew treatment. In addition, the most important thing in the floor drain area of the bathroom is that the drain is unobstructed.
Therefore, we must tell the workers to do a good job of the drainage slope, the most common is the eight-character slope, and there is also the whirlpool cutting method, that is, the whirlpool type. It is recommended to communicate with the construction team before decoration, and to ask about the details and do a good job of acceptance.
