Which style of wash basin sink is better

Today I want to talk to you about wash basin sink (also known as washbasins, basins, sinks), although this is not very important in the decoration of the existence of the technical content, but different types of washbasin, will bring you a very different feeling of life.

 

The most common and love to compare the two types of basin and undercounter basin, in addition,

in fact, there is a column basin and one basin,

maybe your home with these two, but you can not distinguish it.

 

Today, Dabao will take you together with the four types of washbasin,

to talk about what they actually have different.

 

Undercounter basin

Under the table basin is the basin body embedded in the countertop under,

this in custom cabinets, with the business to confirm the design drawings,

countertop placement, specific size are to communicate,

so that the business can be in the production of cabinets in advance to open the hole.

If this step is not done, then you have to grind and open the holes on site,

which is very troublesome and not very effective.

Advantages.

No damage to the flatness of the worktop when used

Easy to clean

Good visual effect

Disadvantages.

Cumbersome to install

Difficult to replace

Above-counter basin

The edge of the basin will be higher than the countertop,

and nowadays many of the basins on the countertop have a strong sense of design,

and there are even many artistic shapes.

To install, you just need to make a hole in the countertop,

place the basin correspondingly, and then glue the articulation for good adhesion.

Advantages.

Easy to install

Easy to replace

Good value for money

Disadvantages.

Not easy to clean

Water tends to splash on the countertop

 

Pedestal basin

The basin has a column underneath and is presented in an upright position on the floor,

usually in the bathroom, and is generally available in ceramic or glass.

In addition to its supporting role, the column also serves to conceal the downpipe.

The column basins are sold as a complete finished product and can be bought directly from the building materials market.

Advantages.

Doesn’t take up much space

Easy to install

Disadvantages.

Small in size, may not work well when using

Water spills easily on the floor and needs to be cleaned frequently

Slightly less textured

One-piece basin

The one-piece basin looks a bit like an undercounter basin,

except that the basin surface and the cabinet below are connected and cannot be separated.

So there is still a big difference with the undercounter basin.

Most of these are also sold as finished products and can be bought and installed directly at home.

Nowadays, they are mostly sold together with mirror cabinets (yes, they are often called bathroom cabinets).

Advantages.

Easy to install

Has some storage function

Easy to clean

Disadvantages.

Needs to be replaced in its entirety if damaged

Because they are integral, they are relatively less selective

 

These are the four types of washbasins on the market at the moment ~ that’s all we have to say about them,

next I’ll talk to you about the precautions.

 

Notes

 

1. If you do not know how much the height of the washbasin countertop should be selected, then choose 85 cm, for most people.

 

2. The west side of the washbasin must be fitted with an S pipe,otherwise it is easy to recoil from the smell. (The dry heaving when you brush your teeth may not be chronic pharyngitis, just smell bad ~)

 

3. When buying a faucet must consider the width of the countertop, the mouth of the faucet can not be too long or too short.

 

4. many manufacturers will sell the sink and faucet bundle, be sure to pay attention to the faucet is not a standard model. Some faucets only have that manufacturer, the faucet is broken simply can not be replaced, can only be replaced together with the washbasin.

 

5. Before buying a washbasin, confirm whether it is wall drainage or floor drainage. This can be expected in advance of the plumbing transformation, try not to change the location of the downpipe, floor drain only later, change is not good easy to flood!

 

6. When buying a washbasin should try a good depth, try to use the feeling. Some washbasin depth is too shallow, the water flow a little larger will splash, easy to wet clothes.
