5 Superuseful Things in the Bathroom That Improve Quality of Life

Budget bathroom renovation is not always synonymous with quality. Especially, on some aspects you simply cannot cut corners or it will end badly.

To avoid redoing the bathroom for a second time, it's enough to not be stingy on necessary devices. Designer Julia Atamanenko told us about them.

1. Water Leak Sensors

Water leak sensors are a useful addition to any home. At least because they concern not only you but also your neighbors. When an apartment is unoccupied, unexpected pipe leaks can happen — including sudden water damage. But if such a sensor is installed, you will instantly receive an SMS notification about the event, and the device will immediately shut off all water supply.

The device can function as part of a 'smart' home system or as a standalone unit placed behind the toilet or in a pipe shaft. During floor cleaning, you only need to lift the sensor, wipe it clean and put it back in place.

2. Water Heater

Shutting off hot water is a familiar problem for everyone, forcing you to boil the kettle every couple of hours. This can be avoided by purchasing a water heater. It's easy to hide it behind an access panel, install it in a niche or even hang it on the wall.

3. Towel Warmer

A quality towel warmer should be mounted in the bathroom to protect against hydro冲击. The most popular models feature an air vent that allows air to escape from pipes and maintains optimal heating power for the unit.

4. Water Filtration System

Today, one can buy coarse, fine or other types of filtration filters. Choosing the right system is best left to an expert in engineering sections or a skilled plumber.

5. Thermostat

Sudden pressure changes affect water temperature, which is especially noticeable during a shower — it becomes inconsistent. A thermostat can fix this by being installed on all mixers. In this way, you protect yourself from temperature fluctuations.
