Now people's living conditions are better, we can take a shower at home, and now many people's bathrooms will install water heaters and showers, so now the colors are popular, then do you know what showers are popular now? Rich people now install concealed showers, which are not only beautiful, but also will not make the bathroom damp and the lines will not rust. So, today I will tell you what is a concealed shower and what should you pay attention to when choosing a shower?

Benefits of concealed shower

1. What is a concealed shower head

The control part (valve core) of the shower head needs to be buried in the wall and connected to the hot and cold water inlet pipes. The outlet pipe for the shower head is also connected in the wall. After the installation is completed, only the control panel and the overhead shower head can be seen on the wall. There is no extra material on the wall, which can play a good role in keeping the wall clean

2. Advantages:

The overhead shower head for installing the shower head has strong selectivity. There are many large-caliber shower heads to choose from, such as the 400mm large-caliber overhead shower head of the German Grohe Rainshower series, which can easily meet the needs of large-area shower water output and provide a shower experience that cannot be replaced by an exposed shower head.

After the wall installation of the installed shower head is completed, only the shower head and the control switch remain on the wall, which will not take up too much space in the bathroom. Visually, it is simple and beautiful.

How to choose a shower head

1. Spray effect

From the outside, the shapes of shower heads look similar. When choosing, you should look at their spray effect. A good shower head can ensure that each small spray hole sprays evenly and consistently, and can ensure a refreshing shower effect under different water pressures. When choosing, you can test the water to see if the spray water flow is uniform.

2. Health and safety are of course the primary factors

Due to the special use range of bathroom products, they may even pollute the quality of drinking and shower water. Therefore, developed countries have strict standards for the health and safety certification of bathroom products, such as my country's standard GB/T23447-2009, North America's CSA and OSHA certification, etc.

3. Comfort-sensory indicators are very important

The water pressure and water volume of the shower head have a great impact on the comfort of the shower. The national "Building Water Supply and Drainage Design Code" GBJ15-88 stipulates that the water pressure standard before the shower head is 00.25kg/cm2~0.4kg/cm2, and the standard flow rate is 9 liters/minute. You should try to choose a shower head with high water pressure. Some shower heads with multiple water outlets are becoming more and more user-friendly. They can be adjusted to aerobic, rain, surge, torrent and other water outlets at will, so you can "bathe" as you like, which improves the comfort and pleasure of bathing.

There are three main ways to install shower heads: rain shower high pole set, lifting pole installation and fixed support installation. The lifting pole installation is recommended, which is practical and does not affect the comfort. The rain shower high pole set is luxurious, but the maintenance is a bit troublesome.

4. Easy maintenance, anti-scaling and non-clogging

Hot water in showers will produce scale inside the shower head, so poor quality shower heads will be blocked or have poor water flow after a period of use, and need to be cleaned. Many people ask about the problem of shower blockage on the Internet. If you use descaling agents or even vinegar regularly like in hotels, the life of the shower head can be imagined. So you can choose a shower head that does not scale and is maintenance-free.

5. Save water and energy, help you save money

National standard GBJ15-88 stipulates that the flow rate of showers is 9 liters/minute, while some showers on the market have a flow rate of more than 20 liters. When you turn on the shower faucet, water and RMB are flowing out. Energy prices are still rising, and households pay hundreds of yuan for water, electricity and coal every month. Buying a water-saving shower can save hundreds of yuan in a year. Moreover, low-carbon people are popular now, and energy conservation and emission reduction are advocated nationwide.

6. Appearance and workmanship are exquisite

Good showers are used for many years, and their appearance is still the same as new. Poor showers lose their luster quickly. This is related to the material and surface treatment process of the shower. For example, the international standard for surface chrome plating is 8 microns, while some small manufacturers only have 2 microns, and the purity of the material is not reached, and even other heavy metals and other materials are mixed in. So you should pay attention to whether the shower has passed the standard certification.
