Not so much time has passed as humanity used cast -iron baths. But they were considered comfortable and comfortable, because there was nothing to choose from. But now everything has changed, and today’s market offers many alternatives.
Modern baths differ not only in their functional characteristics, but also in external data. In addition, the materials from which they are made are also very different.
So, there are the following types of baths: cast iron, steel, acrylic, ceramic and those that are made of artificial stones. Regarding the first species, the following can be noted: they are equipped with thick walls to be the most durable, and therefore they have great weight. The main advantage is cheapness, a polymer coating of a fairly high quality. In addition, because of the weight, you do not have to worry about the bath can roll over.
Steel baths are very similar to cast-iron, but still differ in weight. It has one very important drawback, if you let a stream of water into such a bath, then when interacting with it, a fairly loud noise will be published. And this is due to low noise absorption. Acrylic baths have strong thermal insulation, but, after a certain period of time, scratches may form on it. Ceramic is silent, do not rust and do not scratch. And the baths made of artificial stone are similar to ceramic baths. But, the price of such products will be very high.
