Polish baths Cersanit: advantages and disadvantages

Among the plumbing equipment used in residential premises, a bathtub occupies a special place. It is she who is the center of the interior and sets the tone for the entire design. What kind of baths are not offered by modern plumbing manufacturers, but acrylic products are becoming more and more popular among them. Cersanit bathtubs from a well-known Polish manufacturer with 20 years of experience in this market segment are especially in demand.

Acrylic bathtubs attract consumers primarily with their variety and ease of installation.

In order for thermoplastic polymer plumbing to function properly, it must meet a number of requirements.

• Have no more than two layers, one of which is acrylic and the other reinforcing, consisting of polyurethane or polyester resins. You can determine the number of layers on a side cut when inspecting plumbing in a store.
• The thickness of the acrylic sheet must be at least 2 mm. In this case, the rule is that the more the better. The best option is 5–6 mm.

• Quality products have a white, shiny surface without scuffs or scratches. The presence of stains and even the smallest defects indicate the low quality of the product.
• When you press your hand on the bottom of the bath, it should not bend. Despite its flexibility, acrylic is a fairly strong material that can withstand significant loads without deformation.
• The equipment should not emit any strong odors. Their presence indicates the use of styrene to cover plumbing. You should not hope that this smell will disappear, on the contrary, when typing hot water into the bath, it will only intensify.

• Quality acrylic bathtubs are opaque. If the edges of the product are translucent, then this means that it is not made of acrylic, or too thin a layer of polymer was used. And in fact, and in another case, the bath will not last long.

High-quality equipment will have an individual frame, which is needed for installation, and the screen, as well as the bathtub, is made of acrylic (in this case, the color and gloss match perfectly). All these requirements are fully met in Cersanit sanitary ware, which the manufacturer treats with great responsibility.

All Cersanit bathtubs are made from Lucite acrylic sheet (cast acrylic) and come with adjustable feet. Thanks to this, the equipment can be installed not only against the wall, but also in any convenient place. Most branded sanitary ware has a special antibacterial and antifungal Silverit coating, which contains silver ions. It reliably protects equipment from various microbes for a long time.

Each bathtub from a Polish manufacturer has a certificate and is recommended for use by the Polish Society of Allergists. All Cersanit acrylic bathtubs are equipped with a reinforced double bottom. As reinforcement, special plates and acrylic with a layer of resin are used.

Thanks to the use of high-quality materials, the use of the latest technologies and quality control at all stages of production, Cersanit bathtubs have many advantages.

Among the main advantages of Polish plumbing, it is worth highlighting the following:

• high resistance of the bath surface to scratches and chips;
• the ability to keep warm for a long time, not allowing the water to cool down. At the same time, the surface of the bath itself is pleasant to the body, which increases the comfort during water procedures;
• ease of care - it is easy to wash it using any cleaning agents;
• increased strength provided by a reinforced bottom and rigid frame;

• additional accessories designed for greater convenience (headrests, armrests, shelves and recesses for placing hygiene products);
• light weight and easy installation. The lightweight design does not create large loads on the floors, but you can install it yourself;
• the ability to restore coverage. If, nevertheless, a crack appears on the surface of the bath, it can be repaired using liquid acrylic;
• in the model range you can find both an elite bathtub and quite budget options.

The disadvantages of acrylic bathtubs, in turn, include the following:

• the inability to install a hydromassage system - this applies only to models with an antibacterial coating;
• high ability of the material to absorb coloring pigments (hair dye, iodine, brilliant green and others).

However, against the background of numerous advantages, these disadvantages do not seem very significant.
