How to choose the quality of the shower room
Shower rooms can be generally divided into three types: standard shower rooms, non-standard customized shower rooms, and intelligent overall shower rooms. The standard shower room is uniformly produced by the merchants. The selection of materials, styles, sizes, and accessories all have specifications and standards. It is convenient to save and buy; the smart overall shower room is based on the standard shower room, adding a bathtub, sound, massage, sauna, etc Many intelligent settings, need electricity, have a cover, high price, suitable for high-end handsome users; custom shower room is the most commonly used by ordinary people, this article mainly talks about this.
glass
Ordinary glass cannot be used as a shower room, and tempered glass must be used. There is a 3C certification mark, it is better to use laser to print directly on the glass; the general thickness is suitable for 6mm-8mm; the national standard of the self-destruction rate of tempered glass is three thousandths, and good products (such as CSG Group) can be less than ten thousand Third, authentic tempered glass will not hurt people easily even if it explodes. Regarding the glass film, the poor film may aging after a few years, and the good price is not cheap, everyone decides whether to stick it.
Aluminum
Good aluminum material is not only strictly selected, but also has multiple layers on the surface. The coating is firm, the color is bright and will not corrode, and the thickness will be 1.2mm-1.5mm, and some can even reach 2mm. The thickness of the poor aluminum material is only 0.7mm-1.1mm. Most of them are made of recycled waste aluminum materials for cost saving. The surface has many trachoma, pinholes, lines, dark color, soft texture, easy to deform or break, used at home Difficult to clean, easy to rust, easy to cause the shower room to explode.
Water barrier
The water-retaining strip is best pre-buried. It is best to lay the edges on both sides when laying tiles. The finished product can also be processed with stone. Although the water-retaining strip is small, it will be a headache if the water leaks after one day. Therefore, the shower room is usually ordered before the tiles are placed, and the water retaining strip is delivered in advance. Of course, if the quality of the water-retaining strip is too poor, it will be more inconvenient to replace and repair it after it is buried.
Rubber strip
The water vapor in the shower room is heavy, the temperature is high, and the adhesive strips made of polymers are easy to age, and generally need to be replaced every two years. The sealing strip of a high-quality shower room should not have a breakpoint at the hinge. The sealing strip between the glass doors must be magnetic for better sealing performance.

Open the door
The sliding door does not take up space, and is more suitable for families with relatively small bathrooms, but the slide rail is easy to accumulate dirt or fall into hard objects, which is not easy to clean. Swing door, suitable for large-area bathroom, easy to open and close, but there should be no easy to knock objects next to it. You can choose different opening methods according to the situation at home.
The shower room is related to safety, personally advised not to choose too low-end products. Custom shower rooms are generally charged according to the glass area. The market price is several hundred yuan per square meter. It is better to choose well-known brand products underwritten by insurance companies.
