Acrylic bath

Acrylic bath is a new piece of modern interior. These baths are practical to fully substitute for iron and steel bathtubs and actively gaining our market. Sanitary acrylic is durable and reliable. Acrylic, one of the most hard plastics, has been successfully used in chemical industry, aviation and astronautics. Since the seventies began mass production of acrylic bathtubs. First, these baths have the status of exotic and luxury purchases, mostly because of high prices. But times change, and acrylic bath rapidly enter into our everyday life. They decorate the home and significantly improve quality of life. The advantages of such baths can rate each. Due to the heat insulating properties, in an acrylic bath water cools down just one degree Celsius for half an hour (in a cast-iron one degree for five minutes, the steel even faster). Sanitary acrylic is easy to clean and has a 100% chemical resistance, a bath regularly enough to rinse with warm water and sanitary acrylic prevents the emergence and proliferation of unwanted bacteria. Bath Acrylic is resistant to the appearance of external defects chipping and cracking, gloss acrylic surface does not tarnish with time and is pleasant to the touch. These baths can be produced in various versions, suitable for installation in different circumstances, and their weight does not exceed 15-25 kg, which makes it easy to mount or move and to replace it. The disadvantages of acrylic bathtubs include exposure to scratch (not recommended to wash in the baths of pets, do not use abrasive cleaners, you can not pour boiling water into the tub and soaking are not recommended for long underwear). In the event of damage to the surface of the bath, it should be sanded with acrylic paste for polishing scratches. The thickness of the acrylic bath is at least 5-6 mm, acrylic is uniform throughout the thickness, so zapolirovat scratches are usually not a problem. There are two types of acrylic: extruded and molded. The first is cheaper and less keeps the shape, so the manufacture of bathing in it, for the stiffness, apply a reinforcing layer of fiberglass and resin epoksitnoy. The number of layers can be easily determined by looking at the edge of the bumper (the layers are visible as rings on wood) or by the sound: the more layers, the muffled sound. Baths of this type must complete with frame (there are metal and of moisture-resistant MDF). Cast acrylic holds shape perfectly, baths out of it can be installed directly on the feet. In the acrylic baths are successfully installed all sorts of massage, lights, ozonizers and other technical refinements. Acrylic bathtubs are totally different sizes and can have almost any shape: round, oval, square, angular, wavy, and the standard rectangle. Acrylic bathtubs are very light weight. They are usually installed in bathrooms with a larger area (5 square meters. M) in contrast to standard bathrooms, with dimensions 150 x 136 170 x 170. Although the range of acrylic baths are so broad that it certainly takes into account the increasing interest in particular to acrylic, so finding acrylic bathtub "standard" size is not difficult. Acrylic bathtubs can be fitted with whirlpool systems, transparent inserts, decorative lighting and electronic control. They are installed on a frame made of metal squares and have no bearing 4 feet on the floor, such as steel and iron, and much more. On any side of acrylic bathtubs and any distance from the hand mixer can be set, depending on the situation in the bath (sitting or lying down), the better you can adjust the pressure and water temperature. Possible, to establish not one but several different types of mixers (in an acrylic tub is not difficult to make a hole). Mixer with a cascade of water supply distribution head (waterfall) looks very nice. Also, fill a bathtub with water can drain through a special device - overflow (hidden mixer), summed up by his pipe hot and cold water. If the acrylic tub is not in the middle of the bathroom and the wall, it can be built into the wall hidden embedded mixer (from the wall will be only the gates hot and cold water and the spout from which water comes out, the basic mixer unit will be invisible), you can also connect the shower panel with hydromassage. Installation and connection of bathrooms equipped with hydro-massage system, it is better to trust the professionals who work directly in the place where you get a bath (it is better to agree to install at time of purchase). They provide more long-term guarantees in comparison with other independent specialists. Acrylic bathtubs in use require a more thorough and careful care, compared with iron and steel. On acrylic baths are catching the eye of scratches and chips that quickly darken in comparison with a smooth surface with no scratches, because acrylic soft material. But there are polishing and sealing chips and dents on acrylic baths that pretty quickly and can take care of the surface. The advantage of acrylic baths, not only in price and ease of installation compared with cast iron bath, not only in variety of shapes and colors but also in the stability of the surface to dirt because Surface accumulation of electric charge is absent (acrylic insulator) and a bath requires less surface cleaning.
