From these experiences and lessons of blood and tears, we have summarized the following five major pitfalls in order of regret. Take advantage of others and gain your own wisdom! Let's take a look~
1. Bathroom drainage is the key point
App user Haohaozhu @米丝特叶:
If you want to arrange a bathroom cabinet in the bathroom bath It is hanging type and the drain needs to be made into a wall drain so that the drain pipe does not leak, but I forgot about it.
App user Haohaozhu @思小丝:
I forgot to put sound-absorbing cotton on the toilet pipes, so I got itI dried it and could hear the water running upstairs so clearly that it seemed like my regrets had disappeared. In the toilet...
App user Haozhu @lady Papa:
I haven't thought about what type of water heater to use to run the water . , so I used an ordinary four-part water pipe, but it could not be equipped with a constant temperature water heater. At first, I didn't think about installing a bathtub or a pedestal sink, but when I wanted to buy it, no one sold it to me because there were no dedicated pipes...
App user Haohaozhu @ Ge Nai Da Menghuo:
p>If there are multiple drains in a bathroom, be sure to ask the tile master to make a good one work. In my house a drain was wasted.
2. More attention should be paid to the function of cooking
App user Haohaozhu @唺浩zoe :
The kitchen must be wired separately and leave a 16A socket, otherwise it will be integrated. There is no place to plug in the induction cooker or oven...
App user Haohaozhu@三水drops:
Make sure you don't don't leave a hole in the middle of the kitchen ceiling to put in light! Make sure you stick around and step into the spotlight! Don't ask me why! When you cut vegetables, the light will be blocked by your head! ?
App user Haohaozhu @雨香1986:
The kitchen did not reserve space for the oven and other small appliances in advance, this which has led to a serious shortage of operating space.
App user HaoZhu @飞的RabbitMi:
I didn't know how to cook at the time, so I chose the two-slot kitchen sink without it think. I'm so upset that I go crazy after washing a bigpan.
3. The storage space should be large or small
App user Haohaozhu@The world outside the bed is so scary:
There are too few storage space at home, so many things can only be put on the surface, which is very complicated. The depth of the cabinet is 52 cm. It is obvious that the hanging clothes will get stuck when closing the door. It should be 60 cm for more comfort. The grid on the bottom layer makes it difficult to remove items every time I have to kneel. ... It is more convenient and practical to use drawers on the bottom layer of the cabinet.
App user Haohaozhu @Ah Minato:
There is no space reserved for storing cleaning tools. Although there is already plenty of storage space at home, mops and future vacuum cleaners are overlooked. .individual, now my head really hurtswith the clear layout of my house. I'm really envious when I see the large tall cabinets in other people's homes that can hold all the miscellaneous items.
Haozhu app user @Monica_LS:
When designing your wardrobe, be sure to measure the length of your coat or other clothes, otherwise all long windbreakers and long coats will fall vertically. ground. . If you want to put plastic drawers, compare the size and height of the drawers, otherwise you have to search on Taobao to find the right size like me.
4. Socket installation, a little more
App user Haohaozhu @Moht:
There is no socket reserved for the water return device, which drives the water heater. and the water heater back I took a three hole plug for the water dispenser and I had to change it later; there was no socket inside the changing room and it was impossible to install a cabinet light there was no socket reserved for the sweeping robot inside; the living room.
App user Haohaozhu @爱吃的vpangguliang:
I regret not having lowered the height of the socket in the hall cabinet to be able to install fairy lights for decoration. I regret not placing it; the left side of the sofa The distance between the sockets should be carefully measured to facilitate the placement of the charger; a five-hole socket should be added under the restaurant bar; a five-hole socket should be added next to the gas; water heater in the kitchen and a replacement water heater should be added under the kitchen sink.
Reply to @张万秋:
Actually, many of them can now use multi-function sockets, but the aesthetics are not as good as those directly considered at the beginning some water. and electricity period. Think more about the size of yourappliances and items you use daily.
App user Haohaozhu @Aple:
Be sure to determine whether the outlet is at the bottom or midway. There is a difference of 4 centimeters between the two, and sometimes. this will block the table.
5. Don't ignore the importance of lighting
App user Haozhu @coloryao:
The arrangement of lights is not well planned. The ideal lamp layout should have no main lamp, scattered light sources, low power and large quantity, using downlights and hidden light strips. The color temperature should be maintained between 3500 and 4500 Kelvin. weak ; like this The layout can make your house as beautiful as a studio if you take photos at home. Unfortunately, the lighting design was neglected early in the renovation. Consequently, the main sourThis light in the room is now dominated by the main light and the photo effects still need to be adjusted afterwards.
@张大白Rabbit replied:
I also discovered the importance of lighting. Shops, model rooms and furniture stores all rely on lighting to win. hotel lighting and others. Lamp or spotlight? It seems that the downlight can't achieve the beam effect?
@coloryao replied:
Downlights are mainly used, and spotlights can be used where you want to highlight details.
App user Haohaozhu@粿鱼:
It has just been installed. Some places have floodlights and others don't. In comparison, places with spotlights are so beautiful! Additionally, 3000k and 4000k were used. In comparison, the 3000K Led is used boldly, not too yellowish, but warm. 6,500,000 should be completely abandoneds. My biggest regret is not having access to living room track lights and furniture stores all rely on this to create atmosphere.
Solar string lights can be powered by mobile power by removing the solar panels. According to the relevant information, it is shown that as long as the rated voltage of the solar string lights matches the voltage of the connected electricity and the string lights were directly connected to the DC solar energy before, the electricity connected to the string lights should also be a DC power supply. Alternatively, a converter can be used to convert alternating current to direct current. If solar power was connected to AC power in the past, the string lights should be connected to AC power.
