Sink-tulips - a stylish solution for the bathroom

To date, a huge number of designers come up with more and more stylish solutions for bathrooms. New designs of baths, shower cabins, and, of course, shells are being created. Thus, famous and popular "tulips" shells were created all over the world.

A bit about the sink-tulip

In our time, the shells "tulips" can be considered by right the most common type of sanitary ware. This type appeared in stores in the 90s of the last century. However, at that time such products were not popular. It is worth noting that the name of this type of shell completely corresponds to its shape. Shells "tulips" have a distinctive feature that makes this plumber not only stylish and functional, but still convenient and practical. This feature is that you can attach a pedestal to it. It is worth noting that the pedestal in most cases plays a practical role - it supports the cup itself. However, these days there are such models of pedestals, the purpose of which is only in the decorative design of the sanitary ware. That is, in this case, the pedestal is designed only for the shell to have a beautiful and finished look, and also to hide all communications. In this situation, the bowl of the shell is simply fixed with special screws to the wall.

Now there are 2 varieties of pedestals for the "tulip" shell: those that are attached to the floor, and those that are fixed on the wall. It would be superfluous to note that products mounted on the floor are much more common.

Features of "tulips"

To date, sanitary ware shops provide an opportunity for buyers to purchase shells "tulips" in a variety of sizes and colors. It is in this regard, you can not worry about the fact that the plumbing you have chosen is not suitable for bathroom design. I want to mention that the "tulip" shell, the sizes of which can vary from very small to very large, is not only a stylish but also a durable product, which, provided it is installed correctly, will serve not only long but also good-quality.

It should immediately be noted that the installation of the "tulip" shell is a process that, if you have certain skills and a bit of accuracy, will not take you much time. First of all, it is required to make holes in the wall of a suitable diameter for the brackets, on which the cup itself will be fixed. The holes are best made with a perforator, so you do not damage the surface of the wall. However, this operation can be done with the help of a drill. Then you need to install a siphon for the sink, and only after that you can attach the cup to the wall. By connecting all the pipes and the mixer to the bowl, you can proceed to mount the pedestal, which is attached to the floor using dowels. The pedestal should be installed neatly so as not to damage or displace communication. After installing the sink, be sure to check the product for leaks.
