We all know that water and electricity should be done first in kitchen decoration, and cabinet design should be followed.
With the rapid advancement of technology, there are more and more “equipment” in our kitchen. Take the kitchen sink as an example, it turns out that there are only water pipes and storage. Now there are many equipment, such as garbage disposals, water purifiers, warm water treasures and so on. em… Sister Fan also found it very complicated to say.
Here are some suggestions for kitchen water and electricity layout.
01——Auxiliary lighting at the bottom of the upper cabinet
The kitchen is for washing, chopping, and cooking. Only install a light in the middle, and the operation on the surrounding countertops at night is completely blocked by your own shadow. The solution to the shadow of countertop lighting is to install supplementary lighting under the upper cabinet.
If there is no light line reserved in the cabinet in the early stage, you can also add lights – hand-sweep the sensor light, turn the light on and off, just sweep it by hand near the sensor of the light. In addition to direct wiring, there are socket-type, rechargeable, and even dry batteries. With this lamp, you will find it much more convenient to cook at night.
02 – hand sweep sensor light
Of course, the sink also needs attention. Under the counter basin is the best, with a big hand, the sewage flows freely. If you choose to install a single slot, remember to be big, big, big! That’s great for washing dishes, pots, and large items! (Remember to bring a draining rack~)
03 – Faucet handle
It is best to use the back of the hand to solve the switch, so that the hand is greasy and difficult to touch, the bigger the better, and the arm can be used to switch when the hand is inconvenient. The pull-out faucet makes it easier to clean the sink countertop. In addition, the water pipe of the sink must choose the S pipe to prevent the water from smelling bad.
04 – Floor tiles in the kitchen
Be sure to choose waterproof and non-slip tiles, and don’t paste mosaics or uneven tiles. It looks good, but Chinese kitchens have a lot of oil smoke, and uneven tiles and mosaics are easy to hide dirt. Kitchen hygiene is a tiring job.
