What is dry and wet separation, and whether the toilet is dry or wet

Wet and dry separation is a popular design concept in bathroom design. With traditional bathroom equipment, there is always moisture everywhere after taking a bath, and the humid air stays in the bathroom for a long time, resulting in air pollution. Dry and wet separation includes handwashing station and bathroom separation; Or the separation of the shower area from the toilet and basin area.

Dry refers to the sink, wet refers to the bathroom. The toilet is the dry zone.

Function: Improve safety, do not slip due to splashing on the floor; increase the usable area, concentrate water vapour locally, and make it reusable elsewhere; Extend the life of your equipment.

1. The dry area is designed outside the bathroom.

Dry area design is a completely separated design scheme outside the bathroom, this practice is usually to put the bathing area and the toilet all in the bathroom, the outside is used as a washbasin, and the middle is directly separated by a door, this scheme is the most thorough and effective, the separate handwashing station area avoids the conflict between the toilet and washing, for the family with more residents, it is very practical, in addition, this design is also very suitable for small apartment types, many owners will think that their bathroom area is too small, there is no way to achieve dry and wet separation, By placing the sink outside the bathroom, you can easily achieve the effect of separating wet and dry.

2. Semi-open separation.

Semi-open dry and wet separation refers to the use of glass or some brick walls to separate the sink, so as to achieve the effect of dry and wet separation, this separation method has achieved a clear division visually, although the dry and wet areas are still in the same space, but the two are completely independent, the effect of this scheme is very good.

3. Shower room.

Bathroom dry and wet separation shower room decoration is also a good program, shower room is a more popular way of bathroom decoration in recent years, owners can customize the size and shape of the shower room according to their own living needs and bathroom structure, the shower room can effectively prevent water vapor diffusion, is a better scheme design in the bathroom dry and wet separation.

4. Use the shower curtain for separation.

In order to reduce the budget, but also to achieve the effect of dry and wet separation, many families will choose to use the shower curtain for dry and wet separation, the installation of the shower curtain is simpler and faster, and at the same time can reduce the splashing of water droplets, and the style of the shower curtain, the style is diverse, the decorative effect is more prominent, so that the effect of the shower curtain blocking water vapor is not very obvious, if the economic conditions are better, it is not recommended to use this kind of amplification of dry and wet separation in the bathroom.

5. Use different ground materials.

The use of different floor materials for dry and wet separation is only to divide the dry and wet areas on the ground, and lay some more waterproof materials on the area where the bathroom is located, and choose materials with more comfortable feet at the washbasin, this method is usually used with the shower curtain, and the dry and wet separation is achieved visually, but the actual effect is not very good.

The toilet should be considered dry. But generally the rain and the toilet are separated. Generally, there is no door between the dry and wet separation basin and the living room, so the toilet is placed inside.

The difference between wet and dry surfaces is that the frequent use of water causes moisture to be moist and affects other uses. It mainly refers to rain, bathing and the like.

Wet and dry separation means separation of dry and wet areas. The definition of dry and wet zones is mainly based on whether the ground will be wet. For example, the shower and bathtub are the wet area; The basin and toilet are the dry area.

The function of dry and wet separation is that when you run out of water in the wet area, wipe the water dry in the dry area, and then go out, so that the water will not be brought into the hall; Or if you just want to wash your hands and go to the toilet, you can do it in the dry area without getting your feet wet so that you don't bring water into the hall.

So generally speaking, the bathroom entrance is the sink, then the toilet, and finally the shower. The toilet and shower should be spaced apart.

That's right! The basin is outside. The toilet shower is inside.

Regarding the separation of dry and wet in the bathroom, it generally refers to the separation of the dry space (toilet, washbasin) and the wet space (shower area) in the bathroom. Dry and wet separation is very important in the decoration of the bathroom, otherwise it is easy to make the whole bathroom wet for a long time, not only easy to make the ground dirty, but also easy to slip, let the wooden furniture damp and other hidden dangers, so the dry and wet distinction design is very important.

What are the benefits of wet and dry separation in the bathroom.

1.Extend the life of your furniture.

For wooden furniture, the moisture content of the surrounding environment has a great impact on the service life of wooden furniture. In addition, humid environments are prone to breeding wood insects, which are direct killers of wooden furniture. For some decorative boards in the home, many of them are fiber materials, although fiber materials are not easy to be corroded by water stains, but if the environment is relatively humid, these fiber materials are prone to mold or other melanin bacteria.

2.Improve home security.

If you want to keep the bathroom clean, it is important to separate dry and wet, although the shower curtain can block most of the water, but the wet bathroom after taking a bath will still bring a lot of trouble. From the perspective of safety, the separation of dry and wet can avoid falls caused by slippery bathroom floors.

3.Avoid bacterial growth.

Long-term contact between water vapor and furniture and building materials will cause the indoor environment to be damp, and dampness will lead to the growth of bacteria. Especially in summer, the summer is rainy and humid, the temperature is relatively high, the overly humid bathroom is often a place for bacteria to breed, the pathogenic bacteria and various molds in the environment where people live are very easy to grow and multiply, dysentery, typhoid, cholera and other intestinal infectious diseases and bacterial food poisoning to the peak season. To isolate water vapor and prevent bacteria from growing due to moisture, then a shower room is also a good choice.

4. Good warmth.

The design of dry and wet partitions can allow water vapor to gather in a space, which can better avoid the diffusion of hot air, and the warmth is better than that of bathrooms without dry and wet partitions.
