Don’t be careless when remodeling. Four major kitchen safety issues

These people have almost the same characteristic, that is, they are a bit rebellious, pursue freedom and individuality, have a unique taste in life, and break the traditional decoration requirements. So what should we pay attention to when remodeling the kitchen? Let’s take a look below.

1. Kitchen safety: For safety reasons, when designing a kitchen, be careful about sharp protruding corners, appliances above your head, and range hoods. wait. You can round the corners, or wrap them in cellophane, or buy some small plastic sleeves for wrapping the corners, the kind that can be attached with sticky notes. Of course, it is best to avoid using mats and mats in the kitchen. It is easy to slip when someone is holding a plate or a teapot with boiling water, and it can also burn others.

2. Shouldn’t the kitchen be completely closed?

When it comes to kitchen decoration, many people are open-minded after referring to the samples or pictures of some kitchenware companies. But here's a simple common sense question: What's the difference between Chinese food and Western food? In fact, it is very easy for everyone to be deceived by the effect when looking at those pictures. Most of the pictures from ceramic tile suppliers are samples of partitions (note that they are not walls) of more than ten or twenty square meters. Due to different living habits, Western food is often just braised spaghetti steak and toasted bread in a toaster. Chinese food is often fried, and especially when cooking with animal oil instead of vegetable oil, there is a lot of fumes. Therefore, unless you are a friend who likes to eat Western food, you should just stick to a closed kitchen. If you like, of course you can use glass as a partition, which can at least satisfy your psychological needs.

3. Cabinet countertops

The countertops currently being decorated are mainly natural stone (marble or granite) and artificial stone. Both materials can be used. Relatively speaking, natural stone is harder, while artificial stone is softer. But artificial stone is more beautiful, it’s up to you. What I want to emphasize here is: the artificial stone on the market now is very poor. In 1997, the artificial stone at that time was imported, the quality was relatively good, and the price was about 1,200 yuan/square meter. The current price is about 600 yuan/square meter, and there are transactions. In the past two years, a large number of domestic products have appeared. Although the quality has improved, they still cannot pass the test. Although the scratched texture on the surface of foreign artificial stone can be treated with sandpaper, the more polished the domestic artificial stone becomes, the more polished it becomes. I have a kitchen project that the owner himself ordered from these companies. It has not been half a year and the surface of the sink and partitions have been worn to pieces.

1. Kitchen waterproofing problem

There is not much water in the kitchen. Waterproofing mainly involves ensuring the position of the sink and the inclination of the ground. The most important thing for the former is to make the interface waterproof. Cabinets made of plywood can be ventilated after being exposed to water, but combined cabinets will expand when exposed to water, causing the fireproof board layer on the rear surface to separate. Therefore, the floor part of the cabinet must be made of a 10 cm brick platform, which is the most effective waterproofing.
