More Info
| A bathroom is an important part of a house when we consider the importance of personal hygiene in leading a healthy life. In most simple terms a bathroom can be defined as a room with a bath or as a room in which one bathes. Various bathroom accessories are bathtubs, showers, sinks, washbasins an often a lavatory. Most bathrooms are designed in such a way that both hot and cold water is available as and when required. In other words this makes the plumbing system inside a bathroom quite large in terms of plumbing fixtures and fittings. Apart from bathing purposes, water inside a bathroom may be used for cleaning purposes, and for the movement of liquid and solid human waste through its pre determined channel. The walls and ceilings of a bathroom are carefully planned and made so as to ensure easy cleaning.
The most common materials used in bathroom flooring are ceramics or smooth plastic materials. Even the mats or carpet like accessories used in a bathroom are made of water resistant materials as people always like to keep their bathroom dry when not in use. Since this is a place where the human body is cleaned of impurities, the importance of timely cleaning should not be under estimated. Many germs and other micro organisms may find it comfortable to live and breed inside the bathroom and such microbial activity can be controlled only by timely cleaning and the application of natural or artificial disinfectants. All electric appliances inside a bathroom are installed generally with permanent connections rather than with plugs and sockets. This is done this way so as to minimize the risk of electric discharges through water. |
