Quarian baths: features and benefits

Not so long ago, the range of bathing products was limited to several bath options. Plumbing manufacturers offered bathtubs made of cast iron, steel, and a little later acrylic products went on sale.

Today, the situation in the plumbing market has changed dramatically. Innovative ways of modern production in conjunction with the imagination of designers presented the world with many new solutions. Among them are quartz baths, the features and advantages of which indicate the high quality of the product.

Quarille is a new generation material used for the production of bathtubs and shower tray trays. It is a compound of sand and acrylic.

The structure of the innovative material is as follows: a particle of quartz (a grain of sand) is in a round acrylic shell, and between them everything is filled with acrylic and auxiliary impurities. Sand is used to make the final product more rigid, acrylic - for elasticity, impurities, in turn, affect the color and texture of the product.

Quarilla baths can be called the best in all respects, their advantages are indisputable, but, like any product created by man, these products have their pros and cons.

The advantages of quarian baths include several characteristics.

• Low weight. Quarille is heavier than acrylic, however, it is many times lighter than iron and steel. In general, such a bath is easy to lift and move to the right place by yourself.
• Excellent thermal conductivity. The bath of the quarian quickly heats up and maintains a pleasant temperature for a person for a long time, while the water in the bathing tank also cools down slowly, due to which there is no need for regular infusion of hot water.
• Resistant to chemical cleaners. Quarilla baths do not react even to the effect of the most powerful chemical detergents.

• Large assortment of shapes and colors. Quartile baths are a work of art. Today it is difficult to find two absolutely identical models.
• Long service life and UV resistance.
• Resistance to damage. Quarille is a kind of artificial stone, but according to its characteristics it resembles natural. The material is very durable, it is difficult to break and it is equally problematic to leave a scratch even with an abrasive cleaning agent.
• Ideally smooth surface without the slightest roughness, but at the same time, non-slip.

• Anti-corrosive and anti-bacterial properties are superior to any other bath material.
• Easy installation. Installation of a quarian bath can be done by a person without experience and skills. No crates and cushions of brick are required. It is enough to put the product on the legs, adjust them to the level and connect to the water supply and sewerage.
• Ease of care. On the surface of the quarry does not linger dirt and grease, washed away from the human body.
• Excellent sound insulation. The surface of the product for hygienic procedures absorbs the sound of flowing water.

Quarilla bath, although it has many positive properties, has some disadvantages.

• High price. Compared with cast iron, steel and acrylic, quartz bath costs much more.
• Limited choice due to particular manufacturing process. Despite the large variety of colors, shapes and sizes, quartz baths are made by casting in ready-made forms. This moment makes the choice of forms still limited.
• The uniqueness of the product. In the case of a quarian, this criterion is negative. At present, only baths and shower trays are made of quarian, which is why a quarian bath is still a unique sanitary product. It is quite difficult to find equal to her in style and color sink and toilet.
• Despite the simplicity in the care, it is better not to use aggressive cleaning products, which include abrasive components. If you overdo it, you can damage the surface of the container.
• Quarill material does not tolerate the effects of high temperatures, so if too often water is poured into the bathroom from the quark, it is close in temperature to boiling water, the bath can deform.

The standard height of any bath is 65-70 cm; an adult and a child will easily fit in such a container. With a depth of 50-60 cm, you can comfortably keep your head above water. Regarding the length, the choice is in the range of 150-180 cm and depends on the person's height. To take a bath as pleasant as possible, the head must rest on a special rim.

Modern production of baths offers classic sizes for this kind of products:

• length: 150, 170, 180 cm;
• width: 70, 75, 80, 85 cm;
• height: 40, 60, 65 cm.

The model range of quarian baths consists of different modifications with different design and parameters, the sizes of products also differ. And all these advantages pay off the high cost of the product.

At the request of customers, bathtubs are equipped with support handles., legs, anti-slip coating, hydro or aero massage system. Capacities from quarail are endowed with high functionality, so the demand for them increases daily.

As a rule, quartz baths are sold without overflow holes, and in some models there is not even a drain hole.This is done by manufacturers deliberately, so that the master himself could choose the most successful option to connect to the sewer system.

All the necessary holes are drilled with a crown with a diamond coating of the desired diameter. If you need to embed handrails or install mixers, then use the same method of drilling. Such painstaking and responsible work is better placed on the shoulders of a professional. As already mentioned, quartz baths do not require the arrangement of auxiliary supports during installation. The frame in this case plays the role of scenery.

Installation technology is not much different from the installation of acrylic and steel products:

• expose the bath on the base previously removed from dust and dirt;
• using the construction (water) level align the upper plane of the tank in a horizontal position;
• mounted taps for cold and hot water on the selected side;
• using plastic adapters that are included in the kit, install a drain-overflow and connect the bath to the sewer pipe;
• all connections are checked for tightness - for this, the bath is filled with water and left alone for several hours, if there is a leakage - it is necessary to fix it;
• The front side of the bath (if there is such a need, or so the designer intended) is covered with a decorative panel or decorated with tiles.

In the care of the bath from the quartile unpretentious. But for the product to serve properly for many years, you need to adhere to the recommendations of the manufacturer.

The surface of the quarian is so strong that it is almost impossible to damage it: any fallen object will not do any harm. However, after several years of operation, without proper care, restoration of the bath may be necessary. If for any reason there are cracks and chips on the material, the upper layer has broken, then all the damage can be repaired with your own hands.

The repair option depends on the type of damage.

• Polished surface. It is used in the event of a divorce, yellowing, scuffing and minor scratches. The procedure is carried out using three types of polish: silver (removes stains), abrasive (removes scratches) and wax (gives the product glossiness).
• Surface treatment with special reducing agent. It is used when cracks and chips appear on the bath material. Mixture-restorer sold in the building and plumbing stores. Before applying the container must be well washed and dried.
• Restoration or restoration. It is used in the case of punched through the product. Since quarille is almost impossible to pierce, it is worth considering the authenticity of the product in case of such damage. If the bath is broken, it is necessary, first of all, to restore its outer layer. For these purposes, a reinforcement kit is used. It is better to entrust this procedure to professional masters. After reinforcement, a reducing agent is applied to the surface of the bath and allowed to dry.

Quartz surfaces are resistant to household chemicals. However, this does not mean that aggressive agents can be used to clean them. Cream-like cleaners can easily cope with their task, without harming the sanitary product. To clean it, it is enough to rinse the bath several times a week with a non-abrasive cleaning agent.The appeared raid and a scum easily are removed table vinegar or special substances. The range of the latter is large enough, and anyone who wants can easily choose the best option.

The main rule, which must be remembered by all owners of baths from a quarry, is regular care. After each bath, rinse the container with warm water and wipe it off with a soft cloth. Such simple manipulations will significantly prolong the life of the bathroom and prevent unpleasant consequences.

The production technology of the quarian was developed by a German company. Villeroy & boch. Therefore, quarian baths as a new phenomenon in the market of sanitary products, have not yet had time to get widespread. A new direction in the manufacture of the Villeroy & Boch trademark began to be introduced only a few years ago, but by now the supply of sanitary plumbing supplies has already been established in 100 countries of the world.

German Quarry Bath Series Villeroy Boch Oberonsold on the market can have aero and hydraulic systems. Water jets of a hydromassage have the weakening influence, restore the excellent state of health and a physical form. A feature of this brand is the coating of the bath surface with antiseptic enamel, the structure of which is enriched with silver ions. In the creation of a special type of coating technology is used Acivecare.

However, high quality cannot be cheap. Quarry bath prices range from 800 to 5,000 euros. Domestic manufacturers have not yet provided a worthy alternative to the products of the German brand. The high cost of quarian baths was the reason that there are very few reviews on these products. Most comments are positive. Owners of modern products note that the appearance of the baths, despite the long period of work, does not deteriorate over the years. Glitter does not fade, and cleaning brings one pleasure,because it does not require the expenditure of effort.

Users are pleasantly pleased with the surface, almost instantly heating up to the optimum temperature. And the design which is thought over to trifles does not leave indifferent any buyer. Attracting many and the fact that almost every model has a system of hydro and aero massage.

The owners point out not only the external attractiveness of bathing tanks from the quartile, but also the fact that it is pleasant to be in such devices. The bath heats up quickly and the surface does not cool for a long time. The model range is presented both single-and double baths.

There are also negative reviews. Not everyone approves of the high cost of quartz baths, although they understand that it is associated with high quality. Also negative statements refer to the installation. Not everyone is able to put the bathroom on their own, so you have to seek the help of professionals, which leads to the next financial costs. But in general, owners of quartz products note that the bath of this material is very beautiful, practical and comfortable. Kvaril, despite his young age, has already surpassed all existing materials at the moment.
