The house is renovated, and most families will choose a washing machine on the balcony. In this way, the laundry line will be shortened a lot and not used to run back and forth. After washing the clothes, you can directly dry them, which is simple and convenient. So how do you put a washing machine on the balcony? Next, let's take a look with the manufacturer of AFA Stainless Steel Laundry Cabinet .
1. Which is better, finished, customized, or brickwork?
The finished laundry cabinet is easy to install and cheap, and you can buy a good one for about 1,000 yuan. At the fault, the size is not necessarily perfect, and may leave gaps and leave hygienic dead ends.
Custom laundry cabinets cost around 2500. Usually a quartz stone countertop with a laundry sink. The advantage is that it can fit your balcony perfectly, leaving no gaps, beautiful and clean. Cons, expensive.
Brick laundry cabinets are durable and durable. The price depends on labor costs. Closed balcony, this is not recommended, it is a bit bulky, and the wall will be dismantled after the replacement.
Lao Shen suggested that when choosing a laundry cabinet, remember to consider the future. The finished product and customization are relatively simple to disassemble. The cabinet can be used without throwing it away. The brick-built laundry cabinet is a bit wasteful and increases the balcony load.
2. Is a pulsator washing machine suitable for a laundry cabinet?
When customizing a cabinet for a drum washing machine, the countertops are usually fixed, and the washing machine can be embedded. Similarly, pulsator washing machines are also suitable for laundry cabinets, the difference is that the countertop can be turned up. When the washing machine is not in use, the lid is closed.
3. How to deal with the upper and lower water pipes of the laundry cabinet?
The washing machine needs a water inlet and a water outlet, and the laundry pool also needs a cold water outlet and a water outlet. If hot water is used, a hot water outlet must be added. The general layout is as follows:
The water inlet, outlet, and socket are all arranged below the pool for easy later installation. If it is installed on the side of the washing machine, it will take up the depth of the washing cabinet, causing the washing machine not to plug in.
The balcony area is not large, and a tee can be installed to cope with the drainage of the washing machine and the launch of the sink. If the area is large or long and narrow, a floor drain should be arranged on the balcony to be used as ground floor water.
4. How to arrange the socket around the laundry cabinet?
A socket is arranged below the laundry pool, and the power cord of the washing machine is perforated so that the wires are not exposed, beautiful and clean, and a waterproof cover is required. One or two sockets need to be arranged above the laundry cabinet for other purposes.
