You're reading the right blog if you're planning to install sanitaryware and don't know what goes where and what tool does what. The following tips will help you understand your sanitaryware better and give you the right knowledge on how to install them.
How to Install Sanitaryware on Your Own
1. STORAGE
If you have already bought the fittings you are planning to install in your bathroom but not planning to install them yet, then storing them safely becomes essential. Bathroom fittings are exceptionally delicate, and even a slight jerk can crack them from places that might hamper their functioning or make them look ugly when installed. The best way to store sanitaryware safely is to lay them on a flat surface in a well-ventilated area. Follow the instructions given by the manufacturer.
After installing plumbing, drainage, and tiles, you can start installing sanitaryware in your bathroom.
2. BASIN
After completing the plumbing and tiling, here's what you can do next.
-
Choose the right spot for your basin.
-
Depending on the space occupied by the basin, choose a vanity that complements your basin.
-
Keeping the basin as a template, choose a counter.
Fixing Clips should be used for wooden countertops, and marble countertops can be supported using a timber framework. After placing the basin, seal the rim & joint, and cap with a waterproof sealant. Mark the mixer's location on the basin and cut out the same.
3. SHOWERS
Installing showers is as easy as it gets. Before the tiling work begins, mark the spot where the shower goes and terminate the hot & cold water points accordingly. After tiling, fit the showerhead and cover the joint or the cap with a waterproof sealant.
4. TOILETS
After the appropriate plumbing is taken care of, assemble & mount the cistern on the wall. Connect the cistern inlet and flush outlet with appropriate fittings. The drainage pipe should be appropriately positioned to receive the W.C. connector. The water closet should be mounted on the floor and mark the fixing points. Make holes on the floor for screwing and make sure the water closet rim is correctly located on the rim of the connector.
