However, when choosing this sanitary device, in addition to the size, attention should be paid to other characteristics that affect its performance. To help with this question, we will further examine what the differences of these pallets are and learn the main features of all their types.

Types of pallets 110x110

So, if you decide that a shower cubicle with a bowl of this size fits in your room, then when choosing it you should pay attention to the following points:

• Form;
• Depth;
• The material from which it is made;
• Mounting method.

Below we take a closer look at all their varieties.

The form

In form, the products in question differ in:

• Square and rectangular - can be installed both in the corner of the room and in the center of the wall. In the case of rectangular bowls, as a rule, one side is less than 110 cm, for example, shower trays 110x80 cm are quite common. However, there are models of larger sizes, for example - 110x120 cm.
• Corner - have a triangular shape and are designed for installation in the corner of the room. This form is more practical, as it saves space in the bathroom, but at the same time it is convenient in terms of operation due to the convex outer face.

The choice of form depends on the size of the bathroom, its design, placement of sanitary appliances, etc.

Pallet depth

No less important parameter than the size of the bowl is its depth.

Choose the depth of the pallet should be based on their own needs. If, for example, in the first place is the convenience of operation, then you should prefer a flat bowl. To become it does not need to step over the high side.

Flat models are especially convenient for people of old age and with limited physical abilities. After all, the presence of a side in their case not only complicates the use of the shower, but also makes it traumatic.

The only thing when choosing a flat bowl should be borne in mind that you can install it not in every bathroom. The fact is that these models are built into the floor, respectively, require the location of the sewer pipe below its level. True, the solution to this problem is to install the bowl on the parapet.

If the functionality of the structure is important, then it is better to give preference to a bowl with a high side, since water can be used in it. This may be necessary, for example, for washing things with their own hands, in addition, in such a pan you can bathe a small child. As a result, a deep bowl is an excellent choice for a young family if the shower enclosure serves as a substitute for a bathtub.

A compromise between deep and shallow bowls are medium depth pallets. They can also draw a small amount of water, but they are more convenient in terms of use than deep models.

Material

Having decided on the main desired parameters of the pallet, it is necessary to decide what material it should be from. The price of a product, and also its many operational qualities depends on it.

• good thermal conductivity, so that the bowl heats up quickly and becomes comfortable.

1. Ceramic - one might say, are a classic option. It is also easy to maintain, has an attractive appearance, does not make noise during operation and does not bend. The only thing to note is that ceramics do not tolerate shock loads, and also has an impressive weight.
