The question of the dimensions of plumbing fixtures will be of interest to all those planning to start repairs in the bathroom. Despite the rich assortment of acrylic bathtubs, not all the products exhibited in the sales salons, even if you like it on all other parameters( material, shape, etc.), fit exactly in size. Given that most of the bathrooms in our homes can not even be called spacious as a first approximation, the urgency of this problem is more than obvious.
What to consider when choosing the size of the bathroom?
- How much free space will remain in the room?
- Will this acrylic bath get into the room( the issue of dismantling doorways is not considered)?
- Will it be convenient for all members of the family( taking into account that they are all people of different ages, physique and height)?
That's why there can not be any definite recommendations in principle. Therefore, in the process of choosing a sanitary product, you can focus on the most common sizes of corner models of acrylic bathtubs.

Useful advices
-
Sometimes it happens that the bath seems to be in place, but "if only a little less... ".If the house is built of cellular concrete, brick, then the problem can be solved by scraping in the wall( or on adjacent walls) shallow grooves( horizontal).This is a good way out of the situation, if it's just about some ±( 1 - 1,5) cm. - Not all manufacturers adhere to the typical sizes for acrylic bathtubs, and it's not just technological errors. Each foreign company can have its own standards, which do not contradict the European standards. In addition, many companies specifically produce products of the "non-standard" category in order to satisfy consumer demand as much as possible. Therefore, when going to the store, it is worthwhile to take a roulette with you. Then the error will not be exact.
