Developers of new buildings are sometimes concerned about the beauty of bathrooms themselves and provide a niche for communications. But what if it does not exist, and all the pipes in sight?
Hide - only after checking
If you decide to sheathe the pipes, make sure you leave the hatch to access them. But the flow can happen to anyone, including the hard to reach areas of the pipe. So first should hold pressurize the system. Typically, this air or water fed under pressure is 1.5-2 times more working for 10-15 minutes. No problem - you can hide the pipe.
If coming overhaul
In the houses of the old stock of the program overhaul often completely change all communications. So just to make repairs may be spoiled. But if you do not want to wait overhaul a few years, it is necessary to sheathe the riser, such as wooden panels that are easy to disassemble and reassemble again. Design, trimmed with tiles, this does not allow.
Why is the floor
At arrangement of the hatches of access to communications is important, even the floor on which the apartment is located. The fact that the first and last floor, and every three floors in high-rise buildings located sewerage revision. This branch in the sewer pipe, the closed lid. To access it is necessary to leave the size of the hatch at least 30x40 cm.
If you decide to build a shower in the building design or pan, you will need to provide the slope of the pipe at least 3 cm per meter to the water is drained quickly enough. But to change the height of the tie-in riser so troublesome that usually plumbing behind it are not taken. Therefore, there is a podium where all communications are hidden pipe.
Toilet with installation
It scares many system immured in the wall. In fact, no hatches do not have to do here - the plumber will have access to the installation through the flushing key. In practice, this rarely need repair if water quality is poor, installations for many years, and it was originally purchased from an untrusted producer.
Hatch under the bath
Usually hatch access to the siphon neglect - with proper wiring and pipes cleaned siphon bias may not have even once. But access to the spa motor is required, or for its maintenance would have to dismantle the entire partition.
Noise-proof!
Yes, the niches in which are hidden communication (especially sanitation) better soundproof. This will require a minimum cost, but you will no longer hear the sound of running water through the pipes and drain sewage from the neighbors.
