What is better to choose a hydrobox or a shower stall. Disassembled boxing and concluded
Recently I dismantled an old hydrobox, so now you can evaluate all its pros and cons. The fact is that this device was installed in my presence, just at that time the owners were restoring the doors.
Debriefing
The thing, of course, is beautiful and technological, many functions, there is a backlight and even a radio. When repairing a bathtub, it does not require hammering the walls for a groove to install a mixer, everything is already built into it, you just need to assemble and connect, beauties, but ...
Putting it together in a small bathroom is not for the faint of heart., and since it has many parts that, with a poor fit, can allow water to pass through, the installers sealed the joints with silicone during assembly. Since all plumbing elements are built-in and non-standard, then if they break down, they can hardly be found for replacement. And also because of this the device loves soft waterotherwise the ducts will become clogged with deposits and stop working.
Dismantling
When disassembling, I had to cut the silicone to separate the walls of the box. Since the box is placed in the corner, and there is always poor ventilation, a fungus has appeared, and this is no longer good
Conclusion, I have nothing against this miracle of plumbing, but if you have a small bathtub with poor ventilation and unimportant unfiltered water, then it is better not to take it, and install a booth. The most interesting thing is that instead of it I will put a shower stall, which means it is necessary to remove the tiles, groove the walls to install the mixer on the wall. How does it feel?
