Nowadays, the market offers a large selection of baths of various costs from different manufacturers. In most cases, the bath is bought for a long time, so you need to take it seriously to the process of its choice. Then, in the course of operation, you will not regret the decision made.
A wide variety of shapes, colors differ in modern bath models. In addition, they differ among themselves are the material of manufacture, as well as a set of additional functions.
From childhood, many Russians have known cast -cast -iron baths. And although baths from new materials are available today, however, they are popular. The main advantage of cast -iron baths is their high strength. For a long time they can maintain the heat of the water gained. Even after several years of operation, their deformation does not occur. But along with advantages, these products have their disadvantages. If we talk about the most important thing, then undoubtedly – this is their great weight.
The surface of these baths is covered with enamel, which is a rather fragile coating. From an accidental blow, it can crack or break off. The damaged enamel of a cast -iron bath is no longer subject to restoration. The rough and dim surface of the enamel makes the use for cleaning such a bath of cleaning products. Due to its large weight today, when new technologies have come to many production, such baths are made by traditional rectangular or oval shape, as well as mirrors for bathrooms. Various decorative elements these products are not supplemented.
Compared to cast iron, steel baths have a smaller mass. But this is their only dignity. The thickness of the walls of such baths is small, so they no matter the heat. The enamel coating of such baths wears out much faster.
Acrylic baths are currently the most popular products installed in the bathroom. During their manufacture, special plastic is used, which is then additionally reinforced. The larger the thickness of the acrylic layer, the more reinforcing layers. And this affects the cost and durability of such baths. The advantages of acrylic products include a wide variety of shapes and colors that are currently available on the market. If, as a result of random actions, the coating of such a bath is scratched, then it will not be difficult to restore it at home. To carry out repairs, just purchase a special set of funds.
Risk to run into a fake is the only minus of acrylic bathrooms. Under the guise of acrylic, unscrupulous sellers can sell a bath of cheap plastic under the guise of acrylic. Such a product when heated will distinguish harmful substances that have a negative effect on a person.
