Why are the curtains in the bathroom?

Russian realities of a modest space: bathrooms are small enough that there is not always possible to turn around, and in some apartments you have to use a combined bathroom. Therefore, curtains in the bathroom are used for the following reasons:

  • Constricting: the canvas allows you to step away from other visitors to the bathroom( in a combined room and a large family this is actual), remain invisible during the procedure, covering up your nakedness.
  • Practical and protective: the curtain creates a natural mechanical barrier to water and reduces waterborne dust and steam that settle on furniture. Many materials in this room are designed for increased humidity, but with a bucket of water( when the shower was unsuccessfully used), it's harder to cope with them than with a couple of drops. This will prolong the service life of the interior, cleaning after a visit to the bath is also not necessary.

Advantages and Weaknesses

Curtains in the bathroom thing is useful and good:

  • Cheap. All curtains are made using polymer and artificial fibers, so they are inexpensive compared to curtains made of natural materials. You can change this part without much expense.
  • Durable. Thanks to the same unnatural composition, the material is durable and hardy. It is easy to cope with moisture, it is easy to wash. Like many products made of polymers, the canvas can serve decades.
  • Safe: almost all products are tolerant to temperature changes, are inert, do not absorb water, stand up to the appearance of fungus, mold. Many have special treatment and impregnation. However, substandard samples sometimes fall on the market: if the curtain exudes an unpleasant pungent smell, which does not go away after a few hours, it is better to get rid of it. Most likely it is made of cheap plastic, which is just unsafe.
  • Light weight is associated with the properties of the fabric. Most inexpensive materials are light, so the total weight of the final product is small.
  • Large assortment: it is easy to find curtains on sale, and there are many drawings for every taste.

Disadvantages of such designs they arise because of sloppy use. If you do not direct a strong jet on the fabric at close range, do not pull sharply down the canvas and do not hang on the curtain or its cornice, then you will not know about it. Light fabric will not save from a strong directional jet. Therefore, using the shower, still try not to "aim" at the blind.

Such different curtains

A variety of materials that are used for the manufacture of curtains. The most affordable is polyethylene, however, due to its low weight and density, it is also the most "problematic" one, it is a "one-time" option. It is much more convenient to choose a vinyl film or curtains made of polyester. They are safe and hygienic. But natural materials because of humidity are irrelevant. Still on sale there are also exclusive curtains for a bathroom from textiles, for example, flax and cotton fabric, processed by special water-repellent compositions.
