Separate bath: on legs, acrylic, oval and cast iron, mixer to them

A detached bath is a dream of design, an island of purity and serenity in the vastness of the huge bathroom. An interior sign that life was a success. It is preferred by experts in the presence of a large room.

This bath shows the luxury and taste of the owner, it allows you to play flowers and styles in the same room. Many forms, materials and colorful solutions can make the room the brightest in the house.

• Accommodation is possible in any part of the room: near the wall, in the center. The main thing - bring the water.
• Installation of the bath can be done on the legs, special stands and podium. Any option will look aesthetically pleasing.
• The shapes, materials, color and size of the bathtub are limited by your budget and wishes.

Disadvantages of a separate bath are, they are associated with excess solutions arising during the installation:

• Bringing water to the tank takes time and money. Standard mixers and sanitary ware do not usually fit, but special ones cost more. Having decided on the style of the room and choosing a bath, you need to solve all the technical issues in advance. Delivery and placement of a bath is a complicated process, if you do not take into account some small thing, then the purchase may lose its functionality and raisins.
• Delivery of the ordered detached bath can be expensive, it depends on its weight and size. However, the bath itself will be more expensive than the usual options. The price consists of material, capacity, availability of additional functions.
• The material also affects the weight: heavy metal structures have a solid weight, so it is better to contact a professional assistant. They will help to take into account the possibilities of floor and floors, the severity of the bath during operation. Because the mass is in the water, and in the one who plunges into the bath.

The basis for the manufacture of a bath can be varied. These are classical metal structures( cast iron, steel, copper), stone forms( marble and artificial stone, kvaril), economical acrylic variants and exotic glass, original wooden containers.

The most popular material for a detached bath is acrylic. Lightweight and diverse in design, drowning out noise, they can be very capricious in use, poorly render hot water and sensitive to cleaning agents. Specific design can be quite expensive.

Steel and cast iron are also in demand due to their durability. Affordable, durable, durable. Weak place - fragile enamel, which gradually cracks, changes color after several years of use. Steel baths are noisier, do not hold heat. Cast iron keeps water temperature, its problem is heavy weight.

Stone baths are becoming popular in private homes. The beauty of the overflow and the contrast of the veins are highly valued, so a more accessible stone and a mixture of acrylic and quartz are used to replace the expensive stone. The cost of such items is very high, the water in them cools down quickly. To buy a happy, you need to think carefully about the style of the bathroom, otherwise the wealth of the stone will be lost and become an alabatic patch.

No less effective models of wood, copper and glass. Copper baths are styled for antique style and Empire, wood and glass - a natural, eco-friendly and high-tech design. This work - piece products on order, so the price of them is very few, and in a regular apartment samples of such materials are not found.

The shape of the bath is limited by the imagination of the future owner and the planned place. It can have regular symmetrical features or have broken symmetry and complex shape. For example, near the walls set rectangular, square, semicircular forms. In the corner there is an asymmetrical bowl in the form of a quarter circle, a square and rectangular bath. The rectangle option looks great even in small rooms, but the square will require a spacious room.

Round, square and complex polyhedral forms look great in a thoughtful design and are used in large rooms. Games with geometry are effective, but require work experience or great taste.

How to install a bath is decided based on the position, form and method of communication.

Very nice look baths on the legs, especially if they stand in the middle of the room. Such supports can be made in a simplified form or selected in the form of animal paws. This is combined with fanciful styles, adds a chic and luxury room.

The color of the legs is selected for color or contrast with the bathroom, dark, under the color of the floor or under the metal. To think about this detail is necessary, if the bath is in the middle of the room, and its bottom has a rounded shape. Simply put in the floor or prepare a podium is possible, however, the elegant European gloss in the room will be lost and the geometry of the room will be overloaded. On the contrary, the simplest legs will be very appropriate and good in this case.

First of all, the bath is a place for ablution, it should be comfortable in it: a wide enough bottom will allow sitting and lying comfortably. It is recommended to take medicinal baths in the reclining position, so some manufacturers offer models for lovers of SPA procedures with headrests and footrests. In search of a unique bath you can also find such functions:

• Hydromassage: pipes with water pumped to special openings( jets) massage the body with the pressure of water jets. Adjust the cycle, force and temperature of the water. For a whirlpool, 5-6 jets are enough.
• Aeromassage( these functions are usually found together) is a similar effect of air currents, which are fed through nozzles located in the side of the bath. For aeromassage, you need at least 12 jets.
• Lumbar massage is a variation of the whirlpool, only the water supply is made in a softer mode through the micro-jets, for this purpose, no less than 4 nozzles are placed in the side part. Such apertures protrude less over the surface of the bath, otherwise their functional is the same.
• Ozonation of water occurs through jets, while ozone bubbles saturate the water with oxygen, disinfect. Used for medical and cosmetic purposes.
• Disinfection is one of the basic functions in baths with injectors. In this case, the cleaning agent is poured into a special tank. If there is no such function, and aeromassage and hydromassage are available, it is recommended to pour liquid cleaners into special tanks and start operating mode at least once a month. This is done to prevent pollution, the appearance of mold and the reproduction of bacteria and microorganisms. If you do not use this function, you may soon get an unpleasant smell of stagnant water, and skin and other diseases can be threatened by health.
• Drying, like disinfection, is prophylaxis for the appearance of mold and germs, a useful function, but not all devices.
• Illumination and phototherapy are present in expensive models. Such lighting helps create a pleasant atmosphere, relax, not to mention how the interior is transformed.
• For the convenience of managing additional options, waterproof electronic panels are introduced. Of course, such convenience and clever design are reflected in the cost of the bath.

Bath is the central figure in your room, it sets the tone for the whole interior and emphasizes its style. Choose a bath in advance, because the design of the room should be ready before installation. Bath is a decisive touch, so you need to solve such important issues:

• Budget purchase( separate line will go plumbing for a separate bathtub), where you need to include the costs of delivery and lifting the unit.
• The shape and color of the bath, its material. If the style is classic or modern, then choose metal or acrylic designs. Such models are universal. The color of the bath can repeat the basic solution or differ, be a bright spot. But for luxury bohemian interiors will require an exclusive bathroom on request. Simple and modest models will look naive and spoil the idea.
• How to reduce communication and how to hide them? Do I need a podium for a bath or feet?
• Do you want to use the hydromassage and enjoy the lighting? Test these functions before purchase, not all owners use them. But if there are options, then there will also be auxiliary( drying out disinfection).
• Transporting and moving the bath is an uncomfortable moment when the selected bath does not penetrate the doorways. Please note that the container must pass through the entrance. If you live in an apartment building, the choice of a bath can be severely limited by these factors.
• No matter how fashionable and beautiful the bath was, it must be functional: it should be comfortable to wash, step over the sides, get out and dive, step over the sides. Such problems are observed in people with a special complexion, high or miniature growth or inclined to fullness. Preliminary "measure" the bath: sit down, lie down and appreciate.

Another important issue that will affect the appearance of the bathroom. Select these mixer options:

• Columns or floor. Depending on the design, there are classics, high-tech and baroque. A spectacular column hides communications and a flexible shower hose, bringing them to a considerable height of up to 150 cm. To avoid spoiling the view, the water pipe is mounted to the floor, so the option is good for empty premises given for initial or complete repairs. Wherever significant changes are not planned, such a mixer will be too costly.
• Side-mounted faucets are installed on the side. This is a modern version, which organically looks in large square baths, in a modern design and with multi-function baths. Basically, manufacturers offer their whirlpool baths with ready-made side mixers of good quality. For discerning customers, the market offers separate versions of mixers to the side.
• Cascading and shelving options are considered a design move. They mean the design of a special shelf or niche for placing a faucet and watering cans that can be placed independently of each other. Cascade option is considered more durable than the mixer on the shelf, the latter is only allowed a sliding shower. Therefore cascade construction is more expensive.

A separate bath will set the tone for the whole room, there can not be any trifles in its appearance. Even classic and calm forms will make the room modern and elegant, because to apply in a bathroom such a bath means to have a good taste. Exquisite details or laconic design will only complement the perfection of the shapes in the bathroom, so do not forget stylish trivia and modern plumbing.
