My Wish List
When we come to the conclusion that the time has come to change, renovate or create your dream bathroom, it is worth considering the upcoming actions carefully. After all, the opportunity arises to make your home more comfortable and functional.
A small bathroom is always a challenge for someone who wants to arrange it in a functional and aesthetic way. In a small room, everything has to fit perfectly. However, as with any interior, you should start by figuring out what should be in it. Thinking about owners of small rooms, the Sanplast brand offers a wide range of products that are designed specifically for small bathrooms. What is more - Sanplast specialists advise how to create a fully functional bathroom with a wet and dry area, even in a small space.
Even the smallest bathroom can be functional if we follow a few very simple rules. One of the basic elements is choosing the right colors - lighter shades optically enlarge the space and make it seems light and pleasant for the user. Wood-imitating floor tiles add character and warmth to the space. Putting a bathtub in the bathroom does not mean that it has to take up half of the room. The Sanplast brand offers many solutions, from which we can choose a product that is tailored to our needs and bathroom arrangement options. Rectangular, acrylic bathtub provides optimal bathing conditions and fits perfectly into a small room. An additional advantage is the fact that they can be combined with bathtub screens, thanks to which we can reconcile supporters of quick showering and long baths in the bathtub. It is worth remembering to leave about 70-80 cm of free space in front of the bathtub to ensure freedom of movement.
A comfort in a small area
If we are not enthusiasts of bathing in the bathtub, let's give it up in favor of a shower. Thanks to this, we gain more free space that we can use for other needs. It is good idea to place the shower in the corner of the room in a small bathroom,. Sanplast's offer includes many shower solutions that are perfect for smaller bathrooms. What is more, the Polish manufacturer offers the possibility of connecting two Walk-In shower enclosures with a suitable bracket, thanks to which we can decide on the size of our shower area. The shower enclosure market offers us a wide range of models that differ in shape, material, dimensions and the way of opening the door. In small bathrooms, the design of the shower enclosure is equally important. The best solution is clear and visually light constructions that does not "overwhelm" the interior. The contemporary design has also been influenced by the growing awareness of the drastically diminishing water resources and the increasingly aging society. Hence, we more often decide to replace the bathtub with a shower enclosure. Manufacturers of sanitary solutions understand these needs and meet them. Today, the market for shower enclosures is dominated by transparent models made of tempered safety glass, which captivate with their minimalism and elegance. In smaller bathroom spaces, shower enclosures with transparent glass are ideal, thanks to which the interior is brighter and, consequently, seems larger than it really is.
Full functionality of the bathroom with a shower area
Not only the full functionality is important in each bathroom, but also its style and full freedom of movement in it. Free space for each area can overlap, thanks to which we can achieve ergonomics and comfort even in the smallest bathroom. There are a few guidelines to consider to get the most out of your available space. Beginning with the washing area - to view comfortably in the mirror, it should be placed at a height of 150-180 cm, depending on the height of the people who uses the bathroom. There is a washbasin directly connected to the mirror, which should not be installed higher than 80-85 cm, taking into account the full comfort of washing hands or teeth. Install the battery above the washbasin - if it is wall mounted, it should be about 25-30 cm above the sink. The bathing area containing the bathtub should be adapted to all its users. It is worth remembering about the necessary accessories, such as handles or footrests that make it easier to get in and out of the bathtub. The bathtub fittings are the most convenient for us if we install them 10-25 cm above the bathtub rim. Free space in front of the bathtub is also a very important issue. It does not only provide comfort while preparing for a bathing, but also ensure free movement throughout the bathroom. A comfortable showering area should be tailored to each family member. The most important thing is the place in the shower enclosure and the height of the battery installation. It should be installed at a height of 100 cm and the shower head approximately 200 cm above the shower tray. It is worth paying attention to the way of opening the shower enclosure so that its door and opening direction do not interfere with other bathroom equipment. The bathroom is a room in our homes, where efficient ventilation is extremely important, not only for our comfort, but above all for health. Water vapor formed after each bath should be regularly removed and replaced with fresh air from outside. The excess of this moisture can do us more harm than we think. Taking a bath or shower, flushing the toilet, or washing your hands add moisture to the bathroom air. Excess water vapor leads to the formation of fungi and mold that grow on walls, ceilings and joints between tiles. They are not only unsightly, but also dangerous to health, because warm, humid air not only promotes the growth of mold, but can also damage fittings and surfaces in the bathroom. That is why it is so important to ventilate this room properly to remove this trapped moisture and to provide many benefits.Finally, we should also remember that the wall surfaces and the ceiling should be easy to clean. It is good to use large-size tiles, because they are not only easier to clean, but also optically enlarge the space.
Movement freedom in the bathroom
Before we start the process of arranging the bathroom, let's dimension it and think about how much space we need for each of its elements. Let's devote some time and remember to separate the appropriate areas - washing, bathing - or whatever in the bathtub or shower, and taking care of yourself. Let's adjust the bathroom to the needs of each user, so that the pure pleasure of bathing is the only thing we have to remember when using it.
