In the modern kitchen design, the function of the sink is obviously expanded. For example, where the sink and the cabinet are connected, a working area is opened up, so that the sink has a storage function.

Single-slots are often chosen by households with too little space in the kitchen and can only satisfy the most basic cleaning functions; double-slot designs are widely used in the home, can meet the need for separate cleaning and conditioning, and are also preferred for proper occupancy of space. The three-slot or daughter-slot is more suitable for the special-shaped design, more suitable for a large kitchen with personality style, it also has a number of functions such as soaking or washing and storage, but also can make raw and cooked food separate, save time and effort.

From a convenient and practical point of view, you can choose a large and small "child" kitchen basin. Such a kitchen basin can adjust the water storage capacity during use, and can also drain the dried dishes and vegetables in a small tank. If the space allows, you can also add an extended table to place some debris when washing.

From a space-saving perspective, a pentagonal or quarter-arc bowl can be chosen. These are designed specifically for kitchens with right-angled or rounded corners, making full use of corner spaces that are not normally available.

From the aesthetic point of view, you can choose individual and different colors of the sink to match with the kitchen of various styles. The square shape, round shape, elliptical shape, square shape and elliptical shape can be selected for the shape.

In addition, the width of the cabinet surface must be taken into consideration when purchasing the sink. The width of the sink should be 100mm-150mm less than the counter surface.

The pelvic floor thickness should reach 1mm

After the basin is cleaned, it is glossy, oil-proof, and stain-free. The material anti-fouling is a priority when purchasing a water tank, followed by a pelvic floor thickness of 1 mm.

The general sink is welded tightly and without welding. Welding quality is one of the most critical factors affecting the life of the sink. It is well-welded and can prevent rusting and desoldering. Judging from today's water tank market, all those with a double groove depth of more than 18cm are welded. And the cost of such welding is higher.

In addition, when the thin side of the sink is exquisitely crafted, it can be well matched with the countertop to prevent water from seeping at the joint. Even if there are drops of water or debris falling onto the table, it can be easily wiped into the tank with a rag. Therefore, Pay attention to the flatness of the thin edge when purchasing, because the thin edge is relatively high to the processing technology, and the thinner the edge, the more difficult it is to achieve flatness.

Stainless steel sink thin service life is short

When purchasing a stainless steel sink, first look at the thickness of the stainless steel material, with a thickness of 0.8mm-1.0mm, which is too thin to affect the service life and strength of the sink. Too thick can easily damage the tableware.

Second, look at the surface treatment process, high gloss finish is high, but easy scratching; sanding resistance to abrasion, but easy to gather dirt; matt both high gloss, but also the durability of sanding, the general choice many.

Man-made stone sinks look pure and unsharp with the eyes, the surface is smooth, the surface is marked with nails, no obvious scratches, the most important thing is to see whether the certificate of quality inspection, quality assurance card and other documents are complete.

Select by design

The depth of the sink is 200mm

The detail design of the sink is very important. The 90° vertical angle of the basin wall can increase the usage area of ​​the sink. The depth of the sink is about 200mm, which is more convenient for dishwashing, and can prevent water splashing; if the water hole is in the central position of the sink, the cabinet will not be able to put anything. After the water hole at the bottom, the water pipe is installed against the wall. Not only is the water fast, but also the space is effectively used.

According to the washing characteristics of Chinese families, it is better to choose a large-diameter stainless steel garbage basket. In addition, it must have a controlled water removal function. This can solve the inconvenience of having to lift the water from the washing when it is necessary to go to the water.

The water outlet has a steel ball positioning for quick drainage

General plastic Pipe Fittings, especially hoses, are resistant to hot water, are prone to ageing, and easily fall off and leak water. The PP material has a high degree of watertightness to prevent water leakage.

The water outlet requires steel ball positioning and extrusion sealing. The positioning of the steel ball is the key to sinking sewage. The positioning of the steel ball is of good quality, and the sewage can be quickly eliminated. In addition, designing the sewage pipe to be S-shaped can reduce the back odor of the sewer. Overflow devices ensure kitchen safety.

A protective coating is added to the bottom of the sink to silence and prevent condensation. Although the sink does not seep water, condensation on the outside wall of the sink is prone to water vapour, which is not good for the cabinet. Applying a special coating to the outside of the sink not only absorbs water vapor, but also reduces the noise generated by the collision of the water with the sink during washing. The preferred coating is to spray the entire back of the tank with mortar. Ordinarily it is a rubber gasket attached to the bottom, which can also play a quiet sound effect.

Buy brand sinks are best for designated personnel to install

At present, the shapes of the sinks on the market vary, including square, round, oval and so on.

installation

When installing the sink, the position of the countertop should be consistent with the volume of the sink. When ordering the countertop, the approximate size of the sink of the counter supplier should be informed to avoid rework.

At present, most branded sinks provide door-to-door installation services, but reservations need to be made two or three days in advance. Many owners purchased the sink directly to let the decoration workers install it directly. However, many branded sink regulations do not require responsibility for problems such as water leaks in the sink if not specified.

One end of the water inlet pipe on the faucet is connected to the water inlet switch. When installing, pay attention to the firmness of the joint, and also pay attention to the location of the hot and cold water pipes. Do not mistake the right or left.

After the general sinks are purchased, the workers will cut the cabinet countertops according to the size of the sink. After placing the countertops in the sinks, it is necessary to install matching hanging pieces between the tank and the countertops. The sink should be firmly installed and the tank should not be shaken from side to side. Sink installation is not a big project in the entire renovation, but pay attention to the tightness of the connection as much as possible during the installation.

After the installation is completed, a drainage test shall be performed to fill the water tank with water and at the same time test the drainage of the sewage and overflow holes. If any water seepage is found during drainage, rework should be carried out immediately. After the drainage test, to ensure that there is no problem, the sink can be sealed. When sealing with silicone, it is necessary to ensure that the gap between the sink and the table is even and there must be no seepage.
