You are going to buy a bathtub at home, but you don't know how to choose?
1. Acrylic bathtub
The price is low. Because the artificial organic material has the shortcomings of poor high temperature resistance, poor pressure resistance, non-wear resistance and easy aging surface, so acrylic bathtub rarely does not change color on the bathtub surface for more than three years.
The advantage is that the heat preservation is good, the disadvantage is that it is easy to change color.
And another disadvantage is that it is easy to hang dirt and is not good to clean.
There is a lot of noise when the water is discharged.
2. The steel plate bathtub
The traditional material for manufacturing the bathtub. The steel plate tub is made by stamping the whole bathtub special steel plate with a thickness of about 2 mm, and then the surface is processed by enamel.
It has the characteristics of wear resistance, heat resistance, pressure resistance and so on.
The weight is between the cast iron tank and the acrylic tank, and the heat preservation effect is lower than that of the cast iron tank.
But the service life is long, and the overall performance and price is relatively high.
This kind of cylinder is enamel surface, not hydrophilic and oil, so the surface finish and hardness are high, extremely wear-resistant and scratch-resistant.
It is not easy to adhere to dirt and is easy to clean.
The price is in the middle, not easy to hang dirt.
It is easy to clean, not easy to fade, long-lasting luster.
But the heat preservation is not good.
The noise is in the middle when releasing the water.
3. Cast iron cylinder
It is made of cast iron and covered with enamel, so it is heavy and not easy to produce noise.
Because the casting process is complicated, the shape of cast iron cylinder is relatively simple and the price is very expensive.
Because the cast iron cylinder is very heavy, it is not easy to move and carry, so the installation process is troublesome, often need hoisting, and it is difficult to move and maintain after installation, and ordinary consumers buy less.
However, due to the thickness of the cylinder wall, the cast iron cylinder is characterized by good thermal insulation.
Not easy to hang dirt, easy to clean, good heat preservation, but the price is high. The noise is low when the water is discharged.
When choosing a bathtub, you can try the following techniques to ensure that you choose a good quality bathtub.
1. Look at the thickness.
You can tap the bathtub to judge the thickness of the bathtub.
A thicker bathtub can prevent it from cracking.
2. Look at the gloss. It must feel smooth and smooth.
3. Test the firmness with your hands and feet.
The firmness of the bathtub is related to the quality and thickness of the material, which is invisible to the naked eye.
You need to try it yourself, such as standing inside, whether you have the feeling of sinking.
The bathtub also needs to be kept clean and cleaned regularly at all times.
1. First scrub with vinegar, then wipe with sodium bicarbonate, rinse with clean water, you can clean up the dirt and stains on the bathtub.
2. The yellow dirt on the wall of the bathtub can be mixed with bleach and water at 1:9 to form a solution, and then dipped in a cloth to wipe, the dirt can be easily eliminated.
