Installing bath

Installing bath is carried out almost the same except for some features.

Schematic procedure of installing bath is as follows:
Demolition of the old, if any. Prior to this, should cut off the water, excess water drained.
Assembling all elements of the runoff (and sewage overflow grating).
Attachment of the matrix and assembly.
Alignment baths with level and adjustable feet.
Connecting to the nearest standpipe drain pipes, observing the slope of not less than 2 cm per meter (then drain the water and check the tightness).
Locking legs on the bathroom floor with cement mortar.

As is evident from the order of operations, the connection of any bath starts with elements of runoff and trap assembly: outdoor plastic siphon with overflow and release of iron or brass siphon with the release of iron and overflow. In some cases, have to collect the siphon from the transition tee and the other, carved on a lathe and welded parts.

After installation of the siphon, it is necessary to attach to the bathtub feet and install a bath so that the exit pipe of the siphon entered the sewer pipe. In the cast-iron siphon replace the steel pipe. In bath tightly up against the wall and do a small bias towards the issue.
It must be remembered that the board baths should be parallel to the floor, legs should ensure a stable position bath during operation. Check tightness of space accession baths with sewage and leaks and overflow output.

When you install the bath is important to pay attention to sealing joints. If the bath is installed in the center of the room, sealing the edges of baths issues do not arise. It is quite another when the bath is placed against a wall or walls. The small gap between the tank edge and wall can be sharply diluted paint over the cement, creating a triangular cross section layer. Following is paint over the front of the white paint. If you are simultaneously facing wall bathroom tile, a small horizontal slit missed probably pull the edges of the tiles. Under the large gap can be made from brick “foundation” or put on board a bath plastic plate or tube, over which is applied sealant layer. Perfectly suited for sealing cracks around baths and on the walls of polyurethane foam.

When you install a bathroom must be made to connect the bathroom to the system of equalization potentials. Turn on bath to the system equalization of electric potentials are best left to a specialized company, or the wizard. Connecting the copper wire with a cross section not less than 4 mm2, or a steel strip of thickness not less than 2 mm and a cross section not less than 24 mm2.

Remember that before using the bathroom in it poured 5-7 liters of cold water, then pour hot water.

PEX tubing & Other Plastic pipe

In fact, PEX tubing have a number of positive qualities:

- They do not require painting and constant care, decorative, flexible, flexible and safe, and in addition, are cheaper than metal counterparts;

- Durable, leak-proof, hygienic, have a long operational life with the condition of proper installation, which carried out much easier than metal pipes, however, any barrel has at least one spoonful of tar oil.

So, about those merits, which are described above, known to many, but only a few are familiar with the fact that PEX tubing are divided into four main categories, each of which has specific properties and is suitable only for certain purposes.

1. Polyvinyl chloride PVC – the worst possible choice for home water systems. Operating time – just 1 year, in addition, this material can be toxic. And because it is used only in extreme cases and then in the sewerage system.

2. PEX – may be common – for cold water and “stitched together” – for hot. And if such pipes are equipped with “kislorodozapirayuschim layer”, then for heating systems. Material more durable and high quality, but is able to “age” under ultraviolet light.

3. Copper - used in open systems, for podvodok to devices. Such pipes are protected from oxidation, but in most cases have a standard diameter of 40 mm. Are interconnected with metal fittings, which are under the influence of chlorine (if it in the water), deteriorating rapidly.

4. Polypropylene – have the highest operating period (up to 50 years), have low thermal conductivity. Withstands high temperatures (in some cases up to 100 ° C for short term). They are resistant to corrosion and acids and solvents. In such tubes is not limescale deposits are formed, they did not have bacterial flora and acoustic insulation. And besides, they are easy to install. Such pipes can be used in systems for hot and cold water, radiant heating and plumbing. These PEX pipes are a new generation of an PEX Tubing Canada.

While there are pipes recently, as such service as optimization of websites, but their benefits have already appreciated and professionals, and ordinary people who use them.
