What part of the shower is the most important? Perhaps it is the shower itself or the water supply system. But they are at the top, in an accessible place, and in case of breakage they are easily replaced. Important for the trouble-free operation of the shower cubicle is a properly selected siphon. After all, who wants to get into a situation when the water starts to flow in places of connection or does not pour out of the pallet, does not merge, but the shower can clearly hear the smell of sewerage.
The siphon for the shower tray is designed for drainage of used water. In addition, it should not let smells from the sewer system.
For showers make special siphons. They differ in their design features, in the material they are made of, at the price. For each of the pallets, you can select several models of siphons. But they all belong to one of three groups.
Siphon for the shower tray is:
All models of siphons have some design features that make their use or installation more convenient.
A siphon for a shower tray is of several types:
It is necessary to take into account the technical parameters of the siphon, itsdiameter. The options are also three: 50, 62, 90 mm. To find the right one, measure the diameter of the hole and look for exactly that. The tightness of the connection depends on the accuracy of the measurements.
The capacity of the siphon is largemeaning for rapid release from water. It also affects the rate of clogging and the frequency of cleaning. Often the bandwidth depends on the purpose of the device. The siphon for the shower tray 50 mm and 62 mm is used for low constructions. They are able to work normally only if the water is above the siphon no higher than 12 cm. The siphon for the 90-mm shower tray manages at a water layer of 15 cm. Therefore, models with a smaller diameter are used in low pallets, and the widest in high pallets.
The level of complexity of cleaning the siphon depends on its design. The fewer connections in the structure, the more reliable it is. After all, each of them can be depressurized.
There are models that are not cleaned at all. These have to be removed by examining the pallet. There are siphons, which are cleaned automatically. Inside such a model is a grid with very small holes. Virtually any garbage remains on the mesh and does not clog the siphon. But they are expensive. Therefore, it is possible to protect the siphon from getting a debris by a special net.
Well, if the siphons for showers with a highThe pallet is provided with a drain valve that holds water during washing. A drain valve is not provided in all siphons. Then use an ordinary stub.
A shower cubicle with a deep pallet is installed in several stages:
A cab with a flat pallet is installed on a cement screed. Its gangway is mounted at a small angle.
In order for the siphon to be cleaned ofgarbage, during installation, leave a special inspection hole. It is not necessary only for the overflow neck with a diameter of 90 mm. They are cleaned through the sink. Just clean the sewer.
Siphon under the shower tray is made of plastic, brass. It can not be cleaned with compressed air, otherwise the integrity of the system will be compromised. This will lead to a full repair.
To clean the siphon-ladder remove the grate and remove the debris.
A low pallet is usually glued with foam to the floor. Therefore, it is very difficult to change the siphon for a shower enclosure with a low pallet. Most often you have to reinstall the entire cubicle. To be able to do without this, you need to install a self-cleaning siphon for the shower tray or with a wide mouth.
