How to install the concealed shower faucet
November 02 , 2021
Taking a shower is considered our best daily enjoyment, in China most of them are accustomed to using exposed showers, but in other countries they like to use concealed showers, so we should first determine what we are What kind of shower to install, and then install it.
The exposed shower pipes are installed outside the wall, while the copper pipes of the concealed showers are installed inside the wall, and only the top spray and the hot and cold water switch handles are exposed. So if you buy a concealed shower at home, you must have a long-term guarantee in terms of service life. When we install the shower, the first thing we must determine is the height of the shower mixing valve from the ground. Generally, before installing the shower, we have already determined the location of the shower. Then the distance between the shower mixing valve and the ground is generally controlled within a height range of about 90~100cm. In this interval, we can also fine-tune according to our height. But generally do not exceed 110cm, if it is too high, it may cause the shower riser to be unable to install.
The reserved wire head of the normally installed shower faucet is just buried in the wall tiles. It is best to just cover it with a decorative cover. Otherwise it will look unsightly. Therefore, it is best for everyone to consider the place when laying the pipeline. Generally, it is 15mm higher than the rough wall, so that the wire can be buried when the tiles are finished to ensure that the wall is beautiful.
The general standard for the reserved spacing of the inner wire elbow of the shower is about 10~15cm.Generally, when buying a shower, the seller will give two adapters, so that the water inlet of the mixing valve can be well connected to the hot and cold water outlet on the wall. However, as far as possible, do not use the adapter to transfer, so it is more beautiful.
There are many types of showers on the market, including surface-mounted, wall-mounted and ceiling-mounted showers. Therefore, be sure to understand whether the water pipes laid in your home match before purchasing. Don't choose the shower blindly, causing unnecessary losses.
