Plumbing in our time, like any other item in a living room, is not only a functional item, but also an indicator of the owner’s prosperity and taste (no matter how strange the word “taste” sounds next to the word “plumbing”). Therefore, when choosing plumbing, it is worth making no less effort than when buying furniture for rooms.
Recall: in the bathroom everything is strictly functional, every thing in its place. That is why the slightest dissonance can cause a subconscious feeling of dissatisfaction, annoying you day after day. And the reason can only be that the tile on the floor does not in harmony with the color of the bath, and the heated towel rail shines a little more than the shower mixer.
For the bathroom, attention when choosing plumbing is the first commandment. This is especially important now, with the existing unprecedented choice of all kinds of plumbing accessories of various styles, colors, shapes and firms.
How not to get lost in this sea of plumbing to an ordinary person? Yes, very simple! It is only worth remembering that all this diversity is intended for you so that you can choose a plumbing. You are a buyer, and you dictate your conditions. Sellers and plumbing shops forgetting about this gold rule will not be able to hold out for a long time in the market, so you can be sure that they will be happy to help you, you just have to ask.
However, the seller’s help makes sense to request only if we are talking about some technical details of plumbing, for example, about the properties of the material (for example, when talking about acrylic baths, etc. D.). Everything else is a matter of your taste, and, of course, a wallet.
But the help of a designer engaged in the design of the interior will always be useful. The most reasonable, if financial capabilities allow, plan the repair of the entire bathroom at once, including plumbing, to create an organic, whole picture, all the details of which are harmoniously combined with each other.
However, if your opinion diverges with the opinion of the designer about the choice of a plumbing element and he does not conduct convincing reasons using some obscure hubby-feel free to spit! In the end, it is you who will sit on this … plumbing element for the next ten years.
Separately, it is worth saying about the installation of plumbing. When buying a bath, you can install it yourself (if desired). But when acquiring a certain complex plumbing miracle that does not mix the cocktails, feel free to demand not only installations, but also verification of performance after it. Otherwise you can get into a very unpleasant situation. Correctly working plumbing is the key to a calm life not only for you, but also for your neighbors from below, therefore, again, for you.
