Polish bath Cersanit: advantages and disadvantages

In a number of sanitary equipment used in residential premises, a special place is occupied by a bath. That it is the center of the interior and sets the tone for the entire design. What kind of baths do not offer modern manufacturers of plumbing, but increasingly popular among them are products made of acrylic. Cersanit baths from a renowned Polish manufacturer with 20 years of experience in this market segment are especially in demand.

Requirements for acrylic products

Acrylic baths attract consumers primarily because of their diversity and ease of installation.

In order for a plumbing from a thermoplastic polymer to function properly, it must meet several requirements.

  • Have no more than two layers, one of which is acrylic, and the other - reinforcing, consisting of polyurethane or polyester resins. Determine the number of layers can be on the side cut when inspecting plumbing in the store.
  • The thickness of the acrylic sheet must be at least 2 mm. In this case, the rule, the more the better. The best option 5-6 mm.
  • The quality products have a white, shiny surface without scuffs and scratches. The presence of stains and even the smallest defects indicate a low quality product.
  • When you press your hand to the bottom of the bath, it should not sag. Despite its flexibility, acrylic is a fairly durable material capable of withstanding significant loads without deformation.
  • No sharp odors should come from the equipment. Their presence indicates the use of styrene to cover plumbing. You should not hope that this smell will disappear, on the contrary, when dialing hot water in the bath, it will only increase.
  • Quality acrylic baths are opaque. If the edges of the product are translucent, then this means that it is not made of acrylic or a very thin layer of polymer was used. And in fact, and in another case, the bath will not last long.

Quality equipment will have an individual frame that is needed for installation., and the screen, as well as a bath made of acrylic (in this case, the color and gloss perfectly match).All these requirements are fully met in Cersanit plumbing, the manufacture of which the manufacturer relates with great responsibility.

Advantages and disadvantages

Thanks to the use of high-quality material, the use of the latest technologies and quality control at all stages of production, Cersanit baths have many advantages.

Among the main advantages of Polish plumbing are the following:

  • ease of care - it is easy to clean, using any cleaning products;
  • increased strength provided by reinforced bottom and rigid frame;
  • additional accessories designed for greater convenience (headrests, armrests, shelves and recesses for placing hygiene products);
