Choosing a wall-mounted liquid soap dispenser

The range of accessories that provide greater comfort when performing hygiene procedures in the bathroom is huge today. And technical progress makes it possible to significantly improve these devices. Among the variety available, we can single out a wall-mounted dispenser for liquid soap.

The popularity of the dispenser is explained by the convenience and hygiene of using the device in comparison with ordinary soap and a soap dish. In the latter, water regularly accumulates, which is not distinguished by its purity. Such an environment is favorable for the development and reproduction of harmful microflora, which casts doubt on the benefits of using such a product. Dispensers do not have such disadvantages, and the aesthetic component of the use of such accessories is many times superior to the presence of soap dishes.

The principle of its operation is very simple. It is enough to press with one hand on a specially designated place on the surface - the dispenser button, and bring your palms to the opening from where a certain amount of liquid will come out. The features of the dispenser function allow you to control the consumption of the product, in most models it is possible to track the volume of soap in the container, and sensor models do not require any contact with the device. Durability, ease of use, as well as attractive design of fixtures contribute to the positive trend associated with the fact that this useful accessory appears in apartments and houses more and more often.

The dispenser performs the following functions:

• acts as a container for storing liquid soap. The volume of models can be different based on the scope of operation - products for private use or dispensers, which are installed in public places;
• gives out liquid in certain portions;
• provides a high level of hygiene during operation;
• is a decorative item in the interior of the room.

The advantages of using the wall mounted liquid soap dispenser are as follows:

Among the disadvantages of operating soap dispensers are:

• for devices it is necessary to use only products of a certain consistency - liquid soap.Pouring foaming compounds into the tank, a liquid resembling water diluted with soap will be dispensed from the dispenser;
• for models with a replaceable cartridge, you will have to purchase consumables from this particular manufacturer, which most often have a high cost;
• bulk dispensers are characterized by a lower level of hygiene, since the soap container must be washed and disinfected each time, which is not always done.

The standard model has the following components:

• bowl for the product;
• dispenser with which soap is dispensed.

Automatic and sensory constructions are equipped with some specific additions to the basic configuration. The elbow dispenser is produced with a special lever, pressing on it activates the mechanism for dispensing disinfectant liquid.

Product classification is based on criteria such as:

• the viscosity of the composition is of great importance, since its supply will depend on the thickness of the soap;
• the type of raw material used to release the dispenser;
• the dimensions of the device, including the volume of the container;
• product form.

Based on the method of controlling the wall dispenser, the following models stand out:

• manual type - equipped with a special button;
• sensory models - the principle of operation is based on minimal touching a specific area;
• automatic devices - such products are considered the most convenient to use.

Depending on the material used for production, the following types of dispensers are distinguished:

• glass products;
• metal dispensers, including stainless steel and brass;
• ceramic dispensers;
• plastic fixtures.

Ceramics are in demand due to their unpretentious care and spectacular appearance. Metal accessories will always be in great demand due to their durability. Stainless steel dispensers are inexpensive and can beautify the interior of a modern room. Glass has always attracted attention due to its beauty, and matte and glossy design options allow you to combine glass with many materials, forming an interesting composition. In addition, the composition to be used is clearly visible through the transparent walls.

The latter type is popular due to its low cost, as well as a simple, but no less attractive appearance. Interior designers prefer glass dispensers, which can be any color from standard white to matte black or glossy red, depending on the interior style of the room.

Steel, bronze and chrome are versatile yet luxurious fixture options that will harmonize perfectly with other indoor accessories. However, experts still recommend giving preference to products purchased in a set, so that their presence is concise and does not knock out their overall design of the room.

Wall-mounted appliances have a special lid at the top, due to which you can pour a new portion of soap. For touch models, this procedure may require you to remove it from the surface and turn it over, since the hole into which the composition is poured is usually located at the back.

Most often, wall-mounted hand dispensers made of plastic have a rectangular shape with a small volume of soap containers. As for the color scheme, the most popular color is white, as it symbolizes purity and sterility. Models with a button have a small transparent window where the composition poured into the tank is visible.

Products with control levers can be glass or plastic containers. The design of such models is very diverse. The dispenser can resemble a seashell, an asymmetrical bottle, a fruit, or any other geometric shape.The color range of plastic and glass dispensers amazes with its assortment.

Combined wall models made of metal and glass often become accessories that complement designer and exclusive collections. The forged decorative design of the bowl with liquid soap itself is made in the form of imitation of the stems of climbing plants, foliage or animal bodies. Sensory and automatic devices in their appearance belong to modern stylistic directions, where steel is most often present in a composition with elements made of durable plastic.

The selection of the most suitable dispenser primarily depends on its design. In this case, the reference point will be the material from which the device is released. Plastic models in most cases look very relevant in any interior. To decide what sizes and shapes the wall-mounted dispenser should be, you need to proceed from the location of the purchased product. A compact bathroom will require a small accessory located on the wall near the washbasin.

When hygienic operation is the main concernThe touch metal options will prove to be the most worthy. To save money, you can give preference to the classic manual plastic model. Shape and color is a question that should be based on personal taste preferences, as well as build on the existing color accents in the room. Classic models in light colors, as well as ultra-modern glass appliances of different colors, will always be relevant.

The dispenser is installed using the following technology:

• it is very important to choose the right place for the device. It must be at such a height that all family members, including children, can use it on demand;
• a marker marks the place so that you can drill even holes for fastening in the wall;
• Since the dispenser attachment points are mainly located near water sources - sinks, bathtubs or washbasins, the walls of this area are most often tiled. For such a coating, you will need special components that will not damage the finish;
• you need to fix the dispenser with self-tapping screws to the wall.

Modern manufacturers offer the consumer models of wall-mounted soap dispensers, which can be attached to the supplied suction cups or a special double adhesive tape. But as practice shows, this method is very unreliable, which means that fixing the device will not be durable.
