What is white mounting?
Let's start with what white assembly is. It is nothing more than connecting sanitary equipment in the bathroom , which also includes connecting fittings and all kinds of finishing works. White assembly includes:
- installation of a sink , bathtub , shower , but also a bidet , toilet or radiator
- connection of fittings - includes connection of button batteries or shower panels
- laying ceramic tiles or panels, both on the wall and on the floor
- finishing works, which include sealing and installation of cabinets, handles and mirrors.
Remember one more important thing, namely the order of work is of great importance. For example, after the installation is finished, you need to install the equipment that requires finishing, e.g. brickwork. This includes, for example, installing a bathtub or toilet. We do the white installation when the bathroom is already cleaned. However, we only lay the tiles after installing the under-wall set, e.g. with a bowl or washbasin.
White assembly - shopping list
The shopping list for white assembly depends on the type of work, as well as financial possibilities. Of course, you should always be guided by quality and choose white assembly elements that are durable and reliable. Thanks to this, they will serve for years. It is worth knowing the elements that are necessary for white assembly in the bathroom.
Bathroom elbow - an essential element for connecting a washbasin, bidet or faucet
A bathroom elbow should be strong and reliable, and here the PP Alcaplast 40 mm Alcadrain elbow will work perfectly. It is made of polypropylene. It has good heat resistance, but also chemical resistance to many bases and acids. It does not leak, and at the same time ensures efficient operation. Remember that such an elbow is an essential element of the installation of a washbasin or bidet. You can also choose the Ferro chrome elbow for the wall-mounted tap . It is made of a strong material resistant to mechanical damage. It is finished with a chrome surface, which makes the connecting element more representative. Thanks to it, the wall-mounted tap works effectively, ensures a stable but also durable installation, which in turn translates into comfort of use. The product is very easy to install and can serve for years.
When deciding on a shower, it is worth choosing the Grohe Rainshower connecting elbow , which has a chrome finish with an easy-to-clean shiny coating. It is resistant to mechanical damage, but also corrosion. It is worth paying attention to the universal thread, which allows you to fit almost any type of hand shower.
Muff - effective and reliable
The sleeve, or connector, plays an important role. It is used to connect pipes and thread rods. It is a sleeve that has a cut internal thread. The extension pipe with a Viega sleeve is worth noting. It is designed for the sink siphon. Thanks to the sleeve, the connection can be made extremely quickly, but also precisely. It is also worth paying attention to the material of manufacture, which is polished steel. Thanks to this, the sleeve is resistant not only to mechanical damage, but also to rust.
Siphon - prevents unpleasant odors and drains water to the sewage system
The siphon plays a very important role in the entire water and sewage system. It ensures proper liquid flow, but also tightness. It is worth choosing the Onnline shower siphon , which is dedicated to shower trays from the same manufacturer. It is mounted under the shower tray. Its task is to drain used water, as well as protect against unpleasant odours. For even greater convenience and easier maintenance, the manufacturer has equipped it with the possibility of cleaning from the top. It also has a chrome cap. When connecting a washbasin or bidet to the water supply network, you cannot forget about the siphon. Here we can recommend the Kludi G11/4 pipe siphon , which perfectly drains water from the washbasin to the sewage, but also stops gases and unpleasant odours from the installation. If you are planning to install a bathtub, the CLIK-KLACK Alcadrain bathtub siphon may be a good choice. Read our article and check how to choose a siphon for a washbasin .
Reduction - solid seal in metal or rubber version
A faucet reduction is an adapter that allows you to easily mount a bottle-type faucet. The adapter is mounted with screw-in screws, then the rail is screwed to the faucet. Remember that the reducer must be strong, resistant to damage, and here the 3/4" x 1/2" Ferro faucet reduction will work. In the case of toilet installation, a toilet reduction is needed. The reduction acts as a rubber seal.
