Transfiguration dull bathroom into a neat bathroom. Economical repair. Plumbing work.

Bathroom renovation in full swing. Already completed the dismantling of the walls and ceiling are prepared, laid out electric communication. But before you begin to give an apartment sanitary beautiful appearance, you need to take care of his future functionality and make the necessary changes in sanitary engineering.

In our case, this problem is quite simple. Most communication is already present, you just need to check them and improve. The apartment has a cast-iron sewer pipes in fairly good condition. A big success for me was the fact that builders have provided a small entrance to the tunnel between the bathroom and toilet, possibly for installing the sink. It will be necessary simply to accommodate the entry under the sink for washing machine, and this work will be completed to the sewage system.

Water supply in the apartment is made of plastic, which undoubtedly makes it easier to work. It should be in the cold water pipe to make output to connect a washing machine and a little bit to change the location of the bath faucet. Since my idea of ​​all pipes will be hidden in a box, it is very important to check all joints and connections to avoid possible leaks. In my case, almost all of the connecting elements have been replaced on the safe side coated with a sealant layer.

Although many in order to save waive installation overlapping taps on each water user, I did them I provided, as in my experience they are very facilitate the repair and replacement of plumbing, without having to leave the apartment without water. In my case, the valves have been installed to connect to the toilet and washing machine (as well as in the kitchen, but that's another story).

Since I wanted to hide all communications under the boxes, I had to come up with a way to get a connection Bay and the discharge of water for the washing machine to the surface, while maintaining the reliability of connections and aesthetics.

Cutting off a piece of the drain hose to the washing machine, I connected one end of the entrance to the sewer system, and the other to the connection fitting. The whole thing hooked worm clamps.

To fill the water I built the following construction. Flexible tubing was connected to a tap water supply at the other end thereof mounted with an adapter ½ to ¾ inch, with an internal thread at the outlet. Further, the adapter is connected to the tube-stud which extends through the box and fixed on the inside and outside with the nuts.

Thus, on the surface of the box I received two trim output by the bay and the water is drained. Finishing plumbing work, such as installing a bath mixer, I left before the end of repair.
