Countertop wash basin introduction

A washbasin is a type of sanitary ware, a porcelain basin used for washing faces and hands in the bathroom. There are two types of basin, the countertop wash basin and the undercounter basin. It is not the basin itself that makes the difference, but the installation. A basin that protrudes from the countertop is called a countertop wash basin.

 

When purchasing a basin, the first thing to consider is the size of the space in which it will be installed.

In general, it is not recommended to choose a countertop wash basin when installing in a space with a width of less than 70 cm.

Because the countertop wash basin wants to be installed within 70 cm,

there are fewer types of products to choose from,

and the installation will look cramped and visually poor (with the development of the times, there are no such restrictions).

In addition, before purchasing,

you should also consider the location of the water supply and drainage pipes at home,

with reference to the space around the water supply and drainage pipes, with the basin.

If you do not consider the location of the supply and drainage pipes beforehand,

it is possible that the basin will be bought back and found that

the location you want to install does not have supply and drainage equipment,

then you need to weigh the consumer to replace the basin or to carry out a plumbing transformation,

which invariably increases your burden.

As the basin and bathroom cabinet is an important part of the bathroom,

in the choice of colour, choose the same colour with the bathroom cabinet as appropriate,

should not contrast too much.

 

Shape with

 

Small bathroom space is small, using a single basin design on the counter better, save space, visual effect.

The bathroom is larger, you can use a double basin or even a multi-basin style, practicality, more generous and decent.

The installation of the basin is relatively simple,

only according to the installation drawings in the intended location of the countertop open holes,

after the basin placed in the hole, with glass glue to fill the gap can be used,
