Good bathroom design must be a plus for the comfort of the home environment. For example, in recent years, the popular shower room, driven by the popularization of the concept of dry and wet separation of life, many people think that it is more useful for separating water vapor, and it is also very easy to take care of. Compared with the traditional shower curtain partition, it is It is convenient and beautiful.

 So, let’s talk to you about the purchase standard of shower room.

1. The glass in the shower room

The main material of the shower room is tempered glass, but the quality of tempered glass on the market is quite different. First of all, we recommend the thickness of the glass to be around 8-10mm. The thickness of the glass indicates that it is stronger. Of course, the thickness of the glass also has higher requirements for accessories such as pulleys.

However, this is based on guaranteed quality. It is difficult for some small-brand shower room factories to achieve complete tempering. In the event of a burst, there will be sharp mouths that are harmful to the human body.

 For the glass in the shower room, first look at whether there is 3C certification. There are 3 C marks in the picture above. Some brands are imported products, or have export lines to Europe, they must comply with EU standards, and there will be EN12150 and other words on the glass. After multiple certifications, the quality will naturally be higher.

In addition, some people say that uneven temperature can cause glass to explode, which is not always true. Previous experiments have shown that the root cause of the spontaneous explosion of tempered glass depends on the original film, because the original film itself contains impurities—nickel sulfide. The more impurities and bubbles, the higher the rate of spontaneous explosion.

2. Profiles of shower room

The profile of the shower room is generally aluminum alloy, which is cheaper, and some high-end shower room profiles will choose stainless steel or copper, which looks more atmospheric and beautiful, but the price is more expensive.

One thing to emphasize is that the thickness of the qualified shower room aluminum material is above 1.2mm, and the glass aluminum material for hanging on the rail must be above 1.5mm.

Titanium-magnesium alloy has better corrosion resistance and mechanical properties than aluminum-magnesium alloy, and its strength and toughness are three to four times that of ordinary aluminum alloy. Copper alloy, in order to enhance corrosion resistance, must be plated, and the degree of adhesion of the plated layer to the copper alloy is an important indicator of good or bad. Forging copper itself has high cost and high process requirements, so it is used in expensive high-end shower rooms.

In addition, most of the stainless steel in the shower room refers to 304 stainless steel, and its corrosion resistance is also very good.

3. Is the shower room a sliding door or a swing door?

At present, the main types of shower room opening doors are sliding doors: push-in, push-out or push-in, and flat-opening doors.

Among them, the internal sliding door is not recommended, other types can be selected according to needs. Because the internal sliding door is likely to cause a small internal space, there is a danger that it will be difficult to get treatment in time if a person becomes unwell in the shower room.

The open-door glass door has a large opening area, and the opening and closing of the door is light and convenient, which is convenient for users to enter and exit the shower room. In general, a flat-shaped shower room will use a swing door, after all, it does not occupy space.
